Yeah that looks like them. Thanks!

There's new "O Project" stuff up on Coverchord.

I still wish there was some actual sizes instead of one size fits all style.

Jan-Jan Van Essche Project #4 is now available at Suspension Point.

For Project #4, titled Each One Teach One, Jan-Jan Van Essche contemplates reconstruction and renewal as a creative (and spiritual) process. He celebrates the past while continuing to move forward. A major influence is Boro, a traditional Japanese technique of embroidery patchwork repair, which the designer has re-interpreted into his own vision.




If you have questions about the designer, specific styles, sizing, or anything else don't hesitate to contact us.

Shop the collection at suspensionpoint.ca.

O Project has a website now including a list of stockists...seems like it's still only available in Japan. But might help hunting down pieces for a proxy purchase for anyone who's interested.

That O project looks amazing. Is pricing comprable with his mainline?

 

[OccultaVexillum]

Supposedly cheaper as it's a diffusion line but yeah it's not really much cheaper.

I want the turtleneck bad but either it's not made in bigger sizes or nobody buys bigger sizes since it's all in Japan.

And I'm fully aware how horrible it looks here:

Are you able to locate the stores that have this Knit top?

And this cardigan:

I would really appreciate your time

Coverchord has the turtleneck, lantiki had pretty much everything last I checked too. @curiouscharles had talked about hopefully stocking O Project in the future as well.

Only just saw this thread but I'm excited to see people talk about O Project. I'm a fan and hope they bring it stateside soon. Couple stockists I like:

and Lantiki of course.

I bought a pair of the O Project balloon pants and a hoodie earlier this year from Kink. I love them. Honestly the quality really isn't too far from 'mainline' Jan-Jan. The pieces may not have as many nice details as the usual collections but it's all made in Belgium and maximum comfy. I love that everything's one size fits all. Couldn't afford any of the knit coats but they're very nice in person, definitely my favorite part of the line.

I actually didn't own anything from Jan-Jan's regular collections until recently and frankly, I have no clue why I waited so long. Gorgeous fabrics and his stuff pairs perfectly with all of my drapey clothes. Just grabbed a pair of pants from Suspension Point's sale, hoping they fit as well as the ones I already own.

New collection from O Project

New collection from O Project

Omg When will this be available? Same stockist?

 

[the kidcrash]

Yeah you can probably count on the same stockists previously mentioned, shouldn't arrive until early next year. highly recommend subscribing to Lantiki's emails because they'll definitely mention when the new collection comes in and if it comes in for them, it'll be in the other stores soon after.

Some great O Project stuff showed up on Yahoo! recently actually. Dunno if I'm allowed to post links to auctions but there's a massive oversized knit at 10k yen (originally priced around ~60k iirc), and a few shirts.

I've been buying JJVE pieces like crazy actually. Probably gonna shift my O Project pants soon now that I have more Jan Jan pants than I know what to do with.

Yeah, no distribution outside Japan yet.

I'll make sure to bug Pietro and Jan-Jan about letting me take on those responsibilities when I visit them in Paris this coming January.

When I mentioned it last trip they seemed interested in the idea... and... well... I want O-Project at my store, so... [lezmakeithappen]

 

[the kidcrash]

just ordered another shirt. i think i have a problem.

in relevant news, i found the sneakers they often use for JJVE/O Project lookbooks. The brand is called CEBO

the quality probably isn't much compared to military repro-style sneakers like warehouse/cabourn/moonstar but i like the silhouette
