@nahneun for sure. I hate the see-thru shirting fabrics used so often. I never understood why those became acceptable as no one wants to see your undershirt/tank top through your top layer!

@sinnedk yep! Good eye. They're my black tornados purchased from Atelier back when they were still in Crosby street... I got them back in 2005 or 6. Retail back then was $1450. These days that buys you one shoe at retail it seems.

Lol... truth to that in the states/asia. But Pn\P and the office tornados cost about that amount so just get them there since you know your size.

All truly amazing, indeed. Really some great originality in your work, which is hard to achieve on a steady diet of CCP, ma+, a1923, etc. The leathers, fabrics, and especially the mathematics of your seams (for lack of a better phrase) are so easy and pleasing to look at. And that Boro jacket is the most exquisite thing I've seen since I started tooling around here, I think. Wow. Fortunately, all too small for me! Best of luck with future creations.

Thank you for the kind words @docdocgs ! Yes, for some of the one-off pieces like the boro jacket and the reversible Icelandic reindeer, the material is/was rare enough that I could only make one. For the other pieces, they can be made to order and size. Aside from 1 store in Tokyo, I don't seek out retailers and prefer to work directly with clients to create the pieces for them through dialogue and measurements provided. The result is something more personal for both myself and the wearer :)

are the new styles up already to see?
linen body, cotton sleeve with his typical DNA spiraling panels. I have all the spring marketing images from ZB now. There is a black version of this too.

Has anyone seen the Layer-0 blazers of this season? I'm especially thinking of the hemp one I presume will be in the collection.

There's no SS16 Layer-0 season, only FW15 unless you special order. For pictures check out PNP or Boutique Roma.

PN/P has uploaded pics from what seems to be a spring/summer collection. I also heard from L'Eclaireur that they await some spring/summer items. But who knows these days? Thanks anyway.

@AlexanderTG How thick are the 100% linen LUC jeans? Being all linen, are they only wearable spring/summer or can they be considered a year-round pants?
