I would pin the back of the jacket to give it a little more shape and not so boxy

Yeah, I haven't picked up bag clips to do that yet, just trying to figure out the lighting and how to put the pants on there.

Well good thing I have 2 of them!

Heh, thanks. I think it was a 42. Don't remember length. What's the color/size hierarchy when it comes to reselling/trading?

I came across a guy in the thrift store with a copy of an anatomy book he found on the shelf; wouldn't you know it he was educating himself on female anatomy...creepy to say the least.

yeah those are stunning,but be carefull there are a lot of fakes.
plus dont take this the wrong way,but whenever i see those chairs i think of laziness.
like its uninspired,kind of like a arc lamp.its a MUST HAVE so everybody that has the money gets them.
now may i suggest to you something different,check this out.
NOW THIS MOTHERFUCKER IS COMFORTABLE and a fifth of the price of the eames.
a Percival lafer chair,and they made sofas for it too
these are rosewood made in brazil




i actually had the entire set because thats how i roll

find me a grail chair that is. aside from this http://www.dwr.com/product/eames-lounge-ottoman-vicenza.do

eh - even that is just run of the mill stuff in comparison. but all through architecture school my friends and I lusted over these. and for some reason these chairs have become the poster child for overly inflated retail price.
