fingers crossed......I love grey

Lol I was watching this auction and was quite tempted to put in a bid or two. Looking forward to fit pics!

You could google "home dry cleaning" for some possible solutions. 

great fabric. I'm sure you can make this work. you might have to let those sleeves out for maximum yohji effect though. be sure to post a pic.

Yeah, the sleeves will definitely have to come down, probably to their fullest - although I guess it's possible that the dropped shoulder makes up for it - I'll have to see. In my head i'm picturing a slouchy, 3-season mid-weight suit that I can wear with vans or boots and a plain white shirt, hopefully one of the few that I already have (can't be replacing my whole wardrobe with yohji now, can I?).

To be honest, I can't believe it went for that little. It appears to be in perfect condition, and as multiple people have pointed out, a really nice fabric. I put in a half-hearted bid that I was pretty sure would end up being buried in the deluge, but now I'm really, really excited.

:-) I probably would have bid on that if I saw it, even though I'm shorter than you. I think it will feel pretty voluminous at first esp with the long rise and wide shoulder. but if it's got the slouchy, soft factor, it will be great for that summer/casual vibe. it's a nice change of pace to have all that drapey cloth after wearing skinny stuff for awhile.

The boots are Red Wing Shoes.

haha, anyone noticing a trend? i like it

Thanks Ivwri, PPPP, and Parker. What are the chances of three similar silhouettes posted one after the other? Anyway, Parker wants in on the action too. He would look superb with his new gladiator sandals.
