LEMAIRE
This. I can't imagine the collaboration being anything long term, especially after the difficulties Jil had with Uniqlo. Taken for what it is, Uniqlo clothes that happen to be designed by the Lemaire team, it will no doubt be nice enough. The ad campaign photographs look nice, but obviously...- syed

LEMAIRE
(From the press kit) Q&A FOR LEMAIRE 1. WHAT IS UNIQLO TO YOU? Uniqlo is defined by its LifeWear tag line-it is Made For All, in the most literal sense. Uniqlo is daily, democratic and contemporary. The product is the heart of the brand. Uniqlo is inspired by life, not fashion. 2. YOU...- syed

Yohji, Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love The Looser Fit (Yohji Yamamoto Thread)
I think the Qasa's have come at a good time for Y-3, what with the explosion in tech wear x ninja x streetwear whatever that seems to be going on right now. I like the look of them, but they really would not belong in my wardrobe. Already own a pair of Super Positions in white with the red...- syed

^ Pretty sure those are Spring/Summer 2011 no? Oh and with regards to the hakamas, my understanding is that it applies to the pleated trousers with a loose straight hem (as opposed to those with drawstring hems).- syed

Yohji, Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love The Looser Fit (Yohji Yamamoto Thread)
I think the most important thing to remember is that things are only worth what you are willing to pay for them. If you are just starting to explore Yohji's work, I'd be cautious of spending too much at first - that comes later once you're more confident in terms of knowing what you want. Like...- syed

^ I'm 6 foot and have a 30 inch waist, and one of my favourite pairs of Y's trousers is a size LL! Belt it up and rock it I say. My brother has a pair of slimmer YYPH suit trousers, that are remarkably long - I think 36 inch unhemmed? There have been quite a lot of full bodied trousers in the...- syed

A few photographs from Yamamoto & Yohji for people who have yet to be able to flick through a copy. Definitely recommend buying it - remarkably comprehensive, covering everything from licensing projects, to hair and make up.- syed

Yohji, Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love The Looser Fit (Yohji Yamamoto Thread)
That looks absolutely beautiful! I have the same problem Steven. I'm 6 foot, but I have tiny shoulders, so I end up trying to find either a size 2 with longer sleeves, or a 3 with narrower shoulders (or simply a softer shoulder). I do find raglan sleeves in whichever size the most...- syed

Fiver. Sign me up. On the subject of jackets, I have been on the lookout for a thicker Winter coat. I've seen guys in the gab wool coats come Winter, but I imagine there is a lot of layering going on underneath? Was tempted by some of the cashmere wool AAR coats you see pop up from time to...- syed

Yohji, Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love The Looser Fit (Yohji Yamamoto Thread)
Hmm yeah, I guess reformulations were to be expected. I've never had the chance to try the original so I'm not sure to what extent it would be as a result of reformulation, or it just not working on my skin. Will try to give it a few more tries, just to make sure I'm getting the full effect. Oh...- syed

Was a bit disappointed by Yohji Homme. On my skin all I got the whole way through was rum and spice...and that's about it :confused: On paper it had woods poking through in the dry down, and a slight liquorice note, but yeah, flat on me. I think it needed something to undercut that...- syed

I think this is quite important. I'm not in a position to be able to afford most Yohji, but my brother fortunately is. I enjoy the hunt, and the work that goes into finding something that fits a specific bill, so the majority of the time I'm actually on the lookout for clothes for him...- syed

DSM have Undercover in the corner right of the basement. At sale time they usually have quite a wide selection still left. Oki-ni and Mr Porter tend to have a small selection, and I'm sure you'll be able to pick up some up from there too come sale. Otherwise I can't really think of anything...- syed

I think this is an incredibly important point. I know it sounds corny, but I think designers are at their most successful and creative when they are sincere about their work - they are expressing in their own language and creating something they feel passionate about. A designer such as...- syed

Got some Y's trousers in the post last week, been wearing them every day since. 100% laine wool, half lined in rayon, high waisted, single pleat, size LL (waist is around 34/35 inches). Wearing with SS98 Comme blazer, Y's medium weight mesh scarf, Muji shirt, Uniqlo cardigan, and some deadstock...- syed

I'm use Muji t-shirts as a staple. Either their organic cotton ones (they do a longsleeve version too), or the ones that come in the double pack. Sizing up one seems to give a comfy fit, but of course you can size up more. Plus they have their heat control stuff in now, which fits way...- syed
