Random Fashion Thoughts (Part 3: Style farmer strikes back) - our general discussion thread

@Coldsnap just went to check out a local store here in Pittsburgh and they had RG x Lululemon, almost all of the pieces. Super nice. I'm seriously considering the fishtail parka as a summer weight rain jacket. All the pieces were rad in their own right though

@troika was it Moda? Did you notice if they still have mainline Geller?

Had the chance to visit Hedi Slimane's design studio at Celine this weekend, here's some pics

Well, fashion performance/clever gimmick art news. The lesmoking.com domain is on sale at LN-CC:

For the second instalment of O K L Y N, LN-CC is selling the domain LESMOKING.COM on behalf of Steve Oklyn for one million pounds. With this purchase, the customer will receive ownership of the domain and a one-of-a-kind T-shirt.

I wonder what that return policy is.

Also for auction is a Costume National 98 lookbook. I have old magazines from them in storage, and also "archival" pieces as well. I wonder how lucrative trolling is these days. Might be a good side hustle.

Where's Lesmo and why do they still have a king?

Come to 'Straya... winter is coming.

If only I wasn't occupationally uncertain at the moment, I might consider.

Winter in Australia is like summer in Utah though.

IDK, man. I live in Utah and it's pretty hot in summer...

Did somebody say Utah?

Where you? I'm in Logan.

Whoa weird. That’s where I went to school. Originally from West Valley but I live in Texas now.

Utah is the place for geology. It’s taken me several years to wrap my head around the geologic layers and paleoecology of the state. It’s fascinating.

lol. Yeah, that required a few levels. Not just Nietzche, but Nietzche in German, and then German to English random word association. Pretty sure I was not going to figure that out on my own.

as an ex-professor AND a fitspo fiend you have no excuse for mis-spelling Nietzsche

Lol. Only one of those things is true so I'm off the hook.

Random fashion question: are Bottega Veneta loafers true to size? Particularly the intrecciato version

Yep it was moda. Didn't see any mainline RG, but will ask! It's on the 2nd floor of a big building so I didn't see it before even though I must have passed by it a thousand times.

I chatted with the owner for a while, he's been around for a long time, was apparently one of the few people to carry Cloak back in the day and is a huge Robert geller fan and (possibly) personal friend. Super cool to know something like that can exist in Pittsburgh

1800€ Gucci jock strap, you could probably get something like this for 50€ at a sex shop.
