Those are rather ugly.

I'm a big NdG fan also.

The red orange one might not be too terrible for those who want something edgy.. but at the price points these things will be at, pretty disappointing. (NDG and W&H are good enough on their own, stop collaborating

^ really? That's a shocker, most of their buttons are thick. I own like 5 shirts and never have a problem with their buttons falling off.

This is a problem with all non-lockstitched buttons. It's pretty much luck.

I got the oatmeal colour from Ryon. I didn't feel like waiting for the stock to arrive in the Sydney stores. It seems a bit softer than last year's knits, and is just as nicely constructed. Very happy with it.

Sydney stores: both Incu stores (one in the conservative business dress, and the other in Paddington) and Our Spot, and possibly others.

the markup is rediciulous...

our spot when it used to be open sold a shirt for $400AU.

it retailed for 135 pounds.

i bought it on sale for 67 pounds - $140AUD

has anyone purchased anything from F/W 2009 yet?

i like the khaki jacket. this:
1111.jpg


i do notice the fur is polyester (fake). my guess is that fake fur is stronger and will last longer than real fur. how will this piece dry clean? i dont want to buy a one time wear dud that cant be dry cleaned.

someone from an earlier post mentioned that ndg quality is not all it's sound to be. after 3 seasons of experience...i think it's SO-SO!

lastly, this season's inspiration feels like WWII eastern front, the russian side.
