Look #1 (left): 

It's difficult for me to not see this as a slightly Latin American inspired design with the hat, the scarf and the poncho. I believe this is the heaviest looking design of the collection and it would've benefitted you to allow the top to be heavier and have the bottom be something lighter, overall this is fabulous. You've utilized a technique that tricks the eye into thinking the bag is in black and white - a trick I haven't seen before that I am in love with. The wine-red clunky shoes were an unexpected choice for that lime green dress-pant but the choice kind of works simply because of how unorthodox it is.

Look #2:

It's funny how you mix items that have been so overused throughout the years and you end up with a result that is fun, fresh and original. You took these items and utilized them in a way to showcase a look that is all about fringe - and I am an absolute sucker for fashion-forward fringe. The last time fringe was trendy was in 2008 and I hope it comes back soon. I must point out that I adore that the first 3 models have different variations of the same sunglasses - and ultimately each model have some kind of facial accessory. It's not often we get to see so much eyewear in collections - I appreciate that. The electric face-makeup is brilliant, absolutely fantastic. I also dore the subdue yet gorgeous blue shoe.

Look #3 (middle):

One of the best looks of the entire season, it's insane. Toxic waste worker. I love the nod to industrialism, that it's dystopian irony in the way that it mixes very dark elements with such an intense, cheerful yellow. The headpiece feels like an ode to brutalist architecture and even though it's not a composition that utilizes any crazy tricks, the headpiece is yet innovative and simply perfect, me thinks. I appreciate the fact that the entire look feels so rigid and stern - and then there is the asymmetrical black details that run down over the dress, almost like oil. I'd say that this design is perfection, but quite honestly, perfection is boring. You've inspired me with this one, Harry. 

Look #4:

The word avant garde is thrown around a lot - many people seem to think that anything that is artsy, unconventional or unusual is avant garde. I go by a more old school definition of avant garde: it is fashion that challenges your pre-defined ideas about shapes, proportions, social rules, color compositions, use of materials and more. As time goes on, it is increasingly difficult to deliver something that is truly avant garde as pretty much everything that can be done in fashion has been done in one way or another before. It is therefore high praise on my side when I state that this is truly avant garde, and I find it to be even more impressive as this look is an experimental take on a more conventional silhouette: a blazer and a skirt.

Look #5 (right):

At first I thought the hole in the hat (a detail I'd categorize as comical fashion, which is something I adore) was a mistake on your part when you removed the gray Fuusio background in photoshop - but no, it's an actual Fuusio bug you found, hats off to you (sorry for the terrible pun). This is a lot of look and I want to compare it to Alydaman's S2 avant garde look in his winning collection - it's a design that is all about a fantasy, you're not commercially suggesting anyone should dress this way other than at a rave or at Burning Man. Burning Man is actually the perfect way to describe this look - there is this spark to it, it's a design that is abstractly on flames. The red, black and white dress is an amazing garment on it's own, not only does it have incredible hanger appeal but it's both simple in it's silhouette while it's also incredibly intricate when it comes to the details. I adore the subtle editing of the shirt through the heart tattoo - you can barely tell and the pay-off is a great effect as it not only makes the top more special but it also renders the bag in a slightly new way. You created a dress a that is distressed at the top and more put together at the bottom - it is outstanding. I don't think the wings were necessary but I don't mind them either.

Overall
I adore the retro futurism in this collection: there is a very gleeful and cartooney aura to it, mixed with this old school idea of what the future would look like - which explains the technological, sci-fi undertones of your collection. Every design in your collection is overstated in an intentional tongue-in-cheek kind of way, but I'd still say that it's not overdesigned (overstated and overdesigned are two different things). It's a whimsical colletion with heavy elements to it, and yet there is a sense of ease and an overall lightness to almost all of the looks. The collection is a combination of madness and beauty, which in many ways is how I'd describe you as a designer. These 5 designs feel like a shot of adrenaline and there is a good reason why. This decade has so far been defined by a terrible pandemic, full-scale war in Eastern Europe, a politial climate that has gotten really rough, inflation and rapid global warming. Your collection is a liberating escape from that reality, it is unapologetically joyful and extravagant. Your concept for the collection was the love for design, which might sound a bit tame to some, but I see the deeper message here: it is about the power fashion has to revive and refresh our senses, to give us a new outlook and a new energy. It's about the pleasure of just losing yourself to the beauty of clothes and tuning out those voices that nag you about your responsibilities all day. I was afraid you would overthink and perhaps choke, but as always, you have thrown out the rulebook, in your design landscape there are no rules and I believe that is something that's in your DNA as an artist - the word unique is one I overuse but you are by far the most unique designer I have ever seen.
