Saint Laurent Paris - Official Thread.

[kieran84]

Those 14cm jeans sound very appealing, hopefully they might come in plain black or dark indigo sometime, as that's pretty much all I like wearing these days. I'm not sure I could get them over my feet though, for example I sized down to 28 in the SS14 bleached jeans that LVR had as the 29 was too big, and found that I couldn't actually get them over my feet. I do have size 45 feet, but my feet and ankles are very skinny so that can't be all that unusual at 28 waist so who knows who they were intended to fit. They had a hem just under 15cm, but were only 1% elastane.

The re-sizing to fit more customers sucks. All Raw skinny jeans after SS13 and AW13 have been unwearable for me due to being too loose. If I size down then the waist gets a little tight, while the leg still doesn't end up skinny enough, at least not as skinny as the AW13 ones.

Shame about the leathers as I really fancy getting the one below from next season, but am not prepared to pay the cash if it doesn't fit amazingly. I tried the trapper leather last season, and while it was boxier than past seasons, it still looked pretty good on me and would only require a few small alterations (a little from the waist, and a little from the sleeve length depending on how much shorter they get from creasing with wear). Doesn't sound too good for this season though.



Also tried a chesterfield last season, and it was big on me in the chest and arms, and very long in my regular size, whereas the AW13 one was a little on the small side. I presumed it was a deliberate thing to follow the boxy fitting on the runway, but now I'm not feeling so optimistic about the coats for next season.

That's my picture. They're actually last season's "Dirty 50's" D02, which look a lot better in person than any website they were sold on in my opinion. You should still be able to track them down, but I would recommend sizing down 1 from whatever size you normally wear in Saint Laurent, as they run slightly big. On an unrelated note, ran into Hedi today. Was too nervous to ask for a picture with him, so instead I took one of him walking away hah. Really nice guy, though.

Thanks for clearing that up KP Did hedi say anything interesting to you? Lol

So the studded harness boots came in...but as forewarned, I was not too sure about keeping them that way.

In leather, the studs seemed way too fem for me, especially when pair with my waxed denim (I have the studded pair already in the tan suede for reference).




Loads more happier with my "customized pair"

 

[neonrider]

lol the hedi pic is classic.

i think next season leathers etc will fit slimmer, i feel like hedi was barely in charge of this collection. the sizing is crazy big.

Which SLP denim are you wearing here?

[BeraQueezy]

Thanks broheem. Hope you find your tan pair soon.

As for denim, they are by Naked & Famous. The "Stacked Guy" fit.

Was that at the art book fair? thought I saw him as well.

hah, yeah. He was standing alone outside for a while and I couldn't work up the courage to say something. Then I saw him inside and we talked for a second; he was with friends so I wanted to keep it brief.

this is jeans you are wearing??

Yep.

What jacket was he wearing?

I didn't recognize it, maybe a FW15 piece.

 

[BeraQueezy]

Sans harness vs. Harness

did you treat that suede at all? that **** looks pristine

 

[ninopwns]

****, that DIY looks great. You now have a pretty nice custom SLP side zip boot.

 

[pengyster]

This is probably a shot in the dark but does anyone have a SLP leather teddy in 50/48 wanting to trade for one in a 52?

Just a waterproof spray when I got em last month. That's about it.

Thanks man. And yeah, being that my original intent with SLP was to cop either a side zip or chelsea boot, it worked out quite well.
