LEMAIRE

[bry2000]

@OccultaVexillum lemaire NYC sighting at opening ceremony. They had the viscose knit polo in steel, really tempting.

Edit: @bry2000 mentioned this and I missed it.

Unfortunately for only one more season at OC, which I will really miss. I bought the twisted chinos there last month.

What do you guys think of the new linen military pants? Been looking at them since the lookbook dropped

 

[OccultaVexillum]

I think they look good on the lemaire shop and lookbook but horrible at East Dane. Tbf East Dane is pretty bad with styling everything though

 

[Bottari]

Yeah I thought the same, really curious about the Fabric texture

 

[ambivalence]

I like the fabric of the military pants, very tough look.

 

[Bottari]

Yeah I thought so too, it would have been an instant cop if they the white stitches were still there, which seem to be removed from the sample version

 

[OccultaVexillum]

I wonder if that’s just a different colour?
The matching field jacket still has the contrast white stitch.

 

[malcb33]

I really like use of the contrast stitching here. Works well with the 90's workwear vibe and larger collar.

 

[Bottari]

That’s what I indeed hope, it adds that sparkles without turning them into a very seasonal item, contemplating the jacket-pants combo

AW18 Midnight wool one pleats

AW19 Chinese slippers

 

[Bottari]

How do the slippers fit for you? I’ve found them overly narrow, maybe good to size up?

 

[OccultaVexillum]

They’re a bit short, same as the desert boots, but I don’t find them narrow. I don’t have wide feet though. Just like the desert boots, if they made a 45.5 I think would be the best fit for me, but that wasn’t an option and the 45s work as long as I have thin dress socks

 

[Bottari]

I have a pair of desert boots, the length is fine to me but I feel them slightly narrow on the tips

 

[MaiLam]

Love that 2nd fit

There's no such thing as fake Lemaire, right?

I purchased a FW19/20 zip shirt from Farfetch and noticed the label on on the rear side is unusually janky. Checked the tag on the shirt and the type does not match other pieces I have or seen. Not sure if any of these inconsistencies are indicative of anything...
