Wow, insta thread rescue here, thanks 90s fashion geeks. Now find me those white painted Helmut Lang boots!
with all due respect, fuk, spoo I'm seriously impressed. Ever seen a movie called Agent Zero? (Ben Stiller, Bill Pulman) - you just reminded me of Pullman's character, all slow, methodical and completely sure of what he knew.
That shirt is a black 95% cotton 5% lycra shirt with 24k gold tipped collars and medusa points on the pockets. From the FW '92 or SS '93 collection, original retail about $750 or so. There have been several variations of this shirt on eBay over the past few months. There was also a version in leather to look out for. Pretty sure that exact shirt was listed and ended without a bid in January.
That is some godly knowledge dropped right there. Nice location too
Want more?...
Please do, 90s fashionz is a lot more interesting to me than what's up now. I would love to get my hands on that metal mesh stuff, since a lot of my experiences with metal-woven fabrics (Helmut Lang & Inox, Costume National and steel, etc) were less than stellar. Stuff got itchy, but it still looked cool, and I always wondered if there was a comfortable approach to this... The 'oroton' stuff sounds pretty nice. Had no idea Versace was such a pioneer in this kind of stuff. Will do more reading later.I have one of the last examples of a Gianni designed Oroton gown, from the Atelier 1995 collection that is just amazing. If anyone gives a ****, I can try and take pics.
^ I dont have any HL around, but I can try and find some for you.
spoo i think this weeks WAYWN challenge should be.... vintage versace or whatever 90s brand ppl wore (helmut,gucci,etc)
Spoo is the walking Versace archive. Donatella has been known, following a particularly heavy weekend coke bender, to call up Spoo to ask about past seasons... because she simply can't remember.
1998-2003
Gianfranco Ferre were also pretty good back in late 1990s, haven't seen them around for a while to be honest with you...
