I don't want to cramp your style, but I don't have high hopes for you my friend. T shirts run TTS, and are a little wide on the body except they are cut short. I anticipate that it will be a "boxy" look, and very much so if you went a size up. For their shirts, if anything, I might recommend sizing down if the head opening weren't so small.
Thanks for the info. I purchased it half off on Mr Porter, so, I figured it's worth trying. I was actually worried about the length more than anything, so, the fact that they're cut short leaves me a little hope.

Have any of you guys tried their suits? How's the fit and quality? Just ordered the chalk stripe one from mr porter sale.

Also if anyone has the black leather flight jacket with brown shearling in a 48, please let me know.

I think I got the same suit from Mr. Porter in 44. Look forward to trying it on soon.

@ebayhtl Only camel chesterfields for sale online right now are size 50 or bigger. I may have missed one but I searched a lot and for some time, so I'm pretty sure there currently aren't any available.

@scanner I am intrigued...would be cool to see it coming from LA. I wonder if they are showing FW16 in Paris and LA or ditching Paris? Not sure...

I need some help please! I severely regret passing on the gold trimmed camo jacket and am now trying to find one. Does anyone know if it came in a 44 or was 46 the smallest size? I thought I tried a 44 but maybe I was mistaken.thanks in advance. On a side if anyone has one they'd like to sell please Dm me.

Also glad the show is coming to LA.

T-shirts vary wildly from style to style. I was always a fairly loose M first three seasons, then mixed between M and L, now predominantly L. Necklines and shoulder seams became a lot narrower recently for some reason (I think the older ones look cooler). On the distressed one, pretty sure that's an oversized cut by the way.

does anyone leather condition their jacket l01?.. Feedback? A friend of mine said maybe I should... I've always thought to just let it age.. But said to prevent cracking/wrinkles from depletion of the natural oils... Cents?

I'm confused though, does this mean no mens Paris Show?

*found this - http://www.justjared.com/2016/01/12/hedi-slimanes-saint-laurent-to-show-at-hollywood-palladium/

That's a pretty big **** you to the fashion industry if SLP shows menswear and part 1 of womens in Los Angeles simultaneously over Paris. Pretty cool :) 


It hasn't been so unusual to do something like this. Off the tip of my head in the recent seasons Tom Ford has shown in LA and Givenchy showed in NYC this past September. In regards to LA I think there's been a lot of ado about it in the past few years (the attention paid to celebrities/Hollywood, musicians/recording industry, fashion industry and other creative people migrating there, etc.) I'm looking forward to the presentation.
