RESORT 2025 FASHION WEEK ROAST (it was a rough one) 

Dior…In what universe is any of this resort wear. Am I vacationing in Mordor?

I love when you include historical context. I could watch a whole series breaking down historical context/references for each brand.

Ahh I live for the history and context, it helps us understand your perspective and critiques. Love you, Luke!!

I don't know where rich people are going on holiday, but I think they're going to be a bit hot in all these big coats 🥵

Sorry for your loss in your family Luke x

NOT THE HOBBY LOBBY WALL ART LMAO. this is why i love watching you😂

The Balanciaga collection with the sky-high black chunky boots and long black clothes... I can't help but think of how a fashion show would look like if created by the Star Trek's Kligons.😨

"I have been to one cruise show...after party!" 😂 OMG. Luke, this 60 year old lady absolutely adores you and your reviews!!!

Watching this enlighted me on how poor I am. Then an ad for discounted furniture showed up and I thought - what kind of ads do rich people see? Well at least those who don't have premium.

" I'm sorry for the sheep who got shaved for... those." 😂

everytime I see chanel I let out a deep sigh ir's now an automatic response from my body

Young man on YT single-handedly teaching me EVERYTHING about haute couture, that Vogue would NEVER say, back when I used to buy this mag. I adore your commentary. So smart of you, to select this internet niche:)

The cream Dior dress with word embroidery looks like baby's first cross stitch sampler.

Time stamps: 00:00 - intro about Resort 04:04 - Chanel 12:24 - LV (dnw, but I loved most of it!) 17:11 - Balenciaga 21:50 - Dior thank you, my dear. Good job, as always. Greetings from Brazil.

Lace can go wrong? Lace can go wrong. I need to say this to myself a few more times. Lace _can_ go wrong.

I absolutly adore the black outfit used to exemplify "clunky layering" (23:46). The whole silhouette could almost be straight out of one of Holbein's Tudour portraits. And as that period in fashion history just has a special place in my heart: I love it!

😂 THIS GUY IS AWESOME. The truth that rolls out his mouth helps me understand why I don't like and like fashions. I don't know why you don't have more followers. So refreshing. I would love to see episodes where you pick one celeb and expose their fashion facade.

please make fashion week roasts a regular thing!

Luke, sending condolences and a virtual hug for your loss

Always great to here your perspective on new collections. Really appreciate the background of resort shows too

FYI, Ghesquière did not do the costumes for Poor Things. It was Holly Waddington and she won an Oscar for it.

Hilarious and educational! I come for the side-eye and stay for the knowledge.

Omg- your Chanel roast is savage…. And I loved every minute!!!!!

I love to hear your critiques. All of the items were so terrible this time , and you were so politely brutal. I loved it. 😂😂😂 you always make my day 💕💕💕💕

Demna's Balenciaga is repulsive. Balenciaga will do well to move on. Maria Grazia should stay at Dior forever just so I can hear Luke's shade....🤣🤣🤣

We need to see Galliano as the creative director of Chanel that would be wicked

The clothes may not have been the best but Luke, you absolutely sung!

My Spanish heart melts hearing you so invested in spanish culture.

Luke, your script's intertextuality, informed reflection and analysis are breathtaking - and definitely delivering in a way the resort collections are not.

I can’t help but feel that if the models weren’t directed to have constipated expressions and fast walks like they’d rather be anywhere but the runway, it might do better at selling the escapism/vacation fantasy of the clothing. When the pictures of the confident and elegant models from the reference looks are shown it’s such a stark comparison! I get it when it’s haute couture high fashion, but resort is about telling a story and encouraging people to adopt this persona. Such a shame that models are rarely allowed to show any of their personality anymore.

“THristobal BalenTHiaga” 😭😭😭

That Balenciaga show was just heinous, those super shiny poly looking crumbled ballgowns? No, those gowns deserve to be in the thrift store bargain bin the the 1980s and not on a runway.

Thanks for being here! I appreciate your unabashed self!

These are mostly hideous. I loved Gucci pleated skirts and the dress that Elle Fanning wore. Louis Vuitton looks a bit better than others. But Balenciaga and Chanel hurt my eyes. Can’t believe people paying thousands of dollars for these…

Not the Flint Lockwood spray-on shoes 👀

“And toDAAAYYSS video…” always music to my ears 💙💙💙

Chanel was beyond piss poor and there wasn't much better after that. I think you made some frank and honest comments. Really loving your views. ;)

I am shocked at how ugly almost everything was.

i LOVE these videos, esp when there's historical context!

Love hearing about the history of resort shows to give some context

In rare form today babe love it

😂your honesty is brutal yet hilarious and I'm here for it patiently waiting for more ❤ then facts and history starts flowing from your lips and I'm intrigued

'Most people agree with me even if they won't say it.' 😆 I mostly agree with you even if I don't say it.

This is one of your funniest videos! 😂 Love the energy, transparency and accent

I honestly like the history lessons I learn from you! These fashions are just not fashioning to me!😊

Luke, thank you for sharing your smart and sassy self with us! I appreciate you :)

My first comment to your channel. Hi Luke I love your witty / cutty / humorous talks. For one so young you have it all to become iconic fashion commentator and journalist. You tell it like you see it and for the most part I do agree with you. You have really kept my attentions with your uploads so far.

Like- your level of fashion knowledge is so impressive. You’re a walking fashion encyclopedia.

Brining back gucci looks as before in 70s 80s n 90s n tomford era

I swear the happiness I feel when *luxdups* uploads a video is beyond!!!!

marie grazia at Dior attempting to do a widows of culloden. what on earth made her think.......

Lol this was a rough showing - fun for the fashion roast though

The shade at the end 😂☕️

Okay, I’ve always scratched my head about the obsession around the *gtdupe* book totes and their practicality, but this one is adorable!! Congratulations

Loving all the background/historical details ❤

I thought his last video's "I'm not a Chanel hater, I'm THE Chanel hater" gave me the Quote of the Month, but "Give me Princess Diana, Princess Margaret...Wallis Simpson" is a new winner. You have to KNOW things to get that.

I love your videos! They are witty, so well research that they always teach us something. I always look forward to listening to you. Thanks!

So sad that Chanel and Dior each where at one point my largest inspirations in fashion and motivated me to go so school for design. Now it just feels like they’re the old people using slang incorrectly because they want to be seen as cool.

I think Kristen Stewart with Chanel is most genius because she could actually pull off these looks in a cool way. Hate to say it. But she’s the only one who could.

I think the fringey boots are more reminiscent of the feathered legs of clydesdale horses.

Honestly, you are THE BEST! 🏆

This kid is so quick and smart. I wouldn’t be surprised if he was given his own Fashion show, at some point.

Such an educational pleasure, as always. Thank you so much!! I’m so sorry for your loss, as well.

Your videos are packed with fashion culture knowledge etc thanks ❤

I always liked fashion but never understood the references or what a house code was or how art influences fashion till I found your channel. Thank you so much. Ps-I love the snark

I’m OBSESSED with the Chanel knit cardigan/cover ups and the funky chunky big ol platforms a la the 90’s on ‘roids!! I didn’t mind the jeans and suede coats with the sheer scarves and the “Diana bomber coat” with the see thru skirt too… and that Gucci coat with all the daisies… I LOVE a print tho. I’m a child of the 90’s and really miss a good “baby doll dress” tbh. ❤❤❤ Amazing work on this!! I feel a channel binge coming on!! The history mixed with your commentary and snarkiness just really makes me happy. ❤❤❤

Luke, thanks so much for being my ‘mental health break’ from politics & news. I love you dearly & can’t wait for your next vid. ✌🏻🌊💙

those pleated looks at gucci are looking very robert wun, that very specific cut and overlay of accordian pleats is so common in his work

I watch you becuase you know things, and you present the more interesting pieces, thanks for showing us an inside look filtered thru your brain.

I still love my LV reverse monogram amzwatch clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.

omfg that Chanel collection was diabolical. I loved the green chunky knit ensemble, absolutely gorgeous (except those disgusting shoes) but everything else I saw in this video..wtf?

Look at you throwing around Spanish artists!

Ralph Lauren is the only designer I've ever bought, and I did buy a few pieces of his resort wear in the 1990s, but I didn't see ANYthing that interested me in these collections. And now I wear mostly blue jeans and white linen shirts. Sometimes blue linen shirts. And a few blue and white striped linen shirts. I was never very experimental, but then, I also didn't have the money to do that. And I'm 80.

Those raised boots look like a good way to break an ankle.

I've really missed the fashion week reviews! YES!

My attention kept being pulled away by that LOEWE Howl’s Moving Castle Calcifer puzzle bag ❤❤❤🥰

Thank you for the background on cruise shows. It was a nice intro.

Tartan was originally made with natural dyes, which made the fabric muted and (the reason the English monarch banned it for years) excellent camo. When Queen Victoria let it be used again, tartan came back in bright chemical dyes. Great for parades, useless for camo.

Condolences for the loss of whoever was dear to you.

Agreed about the shirts with cheesy "girl power" sayings

I grew up paying attention to fashion- my mother made her own clothes based on various historical periods and looks, from paintings to ethnic costume books, and subscribed to Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. She was also a big fan of the Met collection, which at that time was easily accessible if one showed and interest, and liked to go in and talk about lace. Made me learn to memorize history by what people were wearing at the time. So if I had to date Henry the Eighth, of course that would have been "Codpiece." So fashion was a thing in our home. I've had a gift for coming up with designs myself, never made - no pun- much out of it, focus is on other things. But I really enjoy your videos. Not always agreeing with you but loving that you put your thoughts out there, and show all these -weird- things. Yes, first part of video was just ugly stuff, not design- it got interesting later on. I love dolls. Not sure about the ones Galliano is referencing though.

You may be right about the Gucci, because as a basic person who is far outside of their demographics, I want almost everything in the scene here.

Classic content that i love

I've only been watching u for a few months now ( so glad i subbed too u ) loving all u videos... but I'm learning so much from u with the history of clothes, how clothes would look better, the jewelry too go with it, I've been having fun watching u. Most of all ur absolutely adorable so that's a bonus lol, anyways trying to binge all i can, also so sorry for the family member that u had pass away my deepest condolences ❤!!

Omg- Dior shaming at its best!!!!!!!!! Love you Luke! Lived for this reading!

John Galliano! Can't keep a good man down. Cream will always rise.

Love your dissections and dissertations. And your opinions - never stop. One petit quibble: the long-sleeve white Dior shirt is a button front ( or button up, if you prefer); it is not a button down shirt. Merci!

Great commentary! You know our stuff!

LOVE WATCHING UR REVIEWS.

Condolences, dear Luke!! Lots of thanks, love and warm hugs from an old rebel-Pinkie

Love your reviews and history lessons!

Balenciaga’s main client is Herman Munster

Where did you get the cute Howls Castle bag with Calcifer on it?

Love your Fergie quote. Obviously you strike critical monolog gold like its your job.

Enjoyed your history lessons as well as the commentary. Didn’t see anything I’d buy at any price.

when you refer to virginie viard's "clothing". IN INVERTED COMMAS lol

The LV shoes remind me of the feet of draft horses

You really have to react at the first red carpet of "Los premios de la moda española" that has been a couple days ago with the mindset of starting recognition to the fashion industry in Spain

Yes, more on the drama at Chanel. I'm thinking about applying as a visual merchandiser in Hawaii.

I love how they can go literally anywhere in the world and yet only go to Europe, and the one time someone goes to china, they showcase an... American brand... Like are they allergic to non western cultures?
