How'd you size the Monitaly shirt? Looks great here
Great question; I was curious how the fit would end up.
I went XS, and although the sleeves feel just a bit short, the rest of the fit is oversized in such a way that it works really really well. I am right between a S and a M typically, with Fujito 1s being a close fit and Fujito 2s being a slightly drapier fit in their knitted tees.

When I have the chance later this week, I'll post a pic with the shirt as the focal point to elaborate the size a bit more. This pic is about the whole ensemble, but the fact I cinched the LEJ coat hides just how beautiful the shirt is.

I've really been back and forth on this shirt for a while now because of the sizing, so this is super helpful. I'm pretty much a standard large across all brands and I can't decide whether to go tts or down to a medium.

Either would likely work, just depends on the sort of fit you want! Just sent you a message with a little more detail and a pic showing a little of how the fit works.

In NY for a short project, and the colder-than-expected weather means I'm keeping warm thanks to these amazingly cozy Kaptain Sunshine trousers and layering everything else I brought.

Blue Blue Japan cardigan, Blurhms crewneck, Begg & Co scarf.
The Blurhms cotton/silk mockneck is peeking out a tad at the neck, too.

I'm assuming the sale isn't live yet and that it's not just my browser cache preventing me from seeing it?

Also, can I put stuff in my cart now and have the price updated or does that not work?

NM: Sale is up and turns out nothing I wanted was on sale yet.

I’m guessing that these really old Drakes, Valstar, etc. pieces are some sort of quirk with the sale page and not actually available as part of the Black Friday sale?

re beat sale cool to see some ~10 year deep cuts show up among the expected fw23 offerings in the early going like a ca. 2014 g. inglese makeup and a portegna leather fat carter (both kopped by others faster than i could blink) - like the nmwa crew just found them behind a display cabinet last week or something.

This was actually misfire on our end with the launch of the sale. Something like 300 items were erroneously live for the first ~20 minutes.
Some clean up to do on our end with cancelling some of these orders, but at least you can feel better about sleeping on something that wasn't there ! 🙃

Got my email this afternoon. Grabbed an ikiji shirt I'd been eyeing.
