the use of that website is banned on styleforum so you have to replace the o with an a to spell out grailed

Ah yes please replace the o with an a in the URL after copy paste

I've got the pictures here:

Is there a reason why all the models wearing pants here are wearing size 2?

If I'm not mistaken, isn't size 3 supposed to be medium/48, which is what these models on other pages of the site stick to?

Or is size 2 really closer to a medium?

I'm confused.

I always thought 3 equated to 50/L in YYPH, but I could very well be wrong

 

[sosuke]

3 should be a medium and 4 a large. I've never seen a size 1 Yohji piece in my life but that's not the reason I say 3 is M and 4 is L. All the size 3 Yohji pieces I've owned and own now have fit like a medium; some with the usual slouchy fit.

It looks okay. The tag doesn't look suspicious at all.

Kind of pointless to argue about which YYPH size corresponds to which S/M/L size seeing that most people can wear most sizes, it depends more on what kind of fit you want. Best to go to a store that sells YYPH and try on a few things in different sizes to get a feel for it. YYPH sizing is fairly consistent over the years from my experience. If it matters I'm 185cm and a size 50 in most regular things and most of my YYPH is size 3, with a few size 4 pieces. On jackets the main factor to decide between size 3/4 for me is how long I want the sleeves to be. In old YYPH sizing I have a few L things as well as one item in M, but it certainly fits nothing like an L in other brands.

I found a pair of YJPH at the thrift store -- men's cotton drawstring pants with elastic cuffs. Tag looks good but the fabric care tag is throwing me. It says Made in Portugal. Could they be fake? I know the older posts in this thread said it wasn't a faked brand but has that changed in recent years?

Thank you in advance!

Would someone be able to help me identify and perhaps locate runway model pictures for this jacket:

Hmm can't seem to find the coat featured on the AW12 runway

I've found this blazer but it's got lapels
