Last few look like a Visvim shoot

A lot of more recent labels have unashamedly pillaged the holy trinity of Issey Miyake, CdG and Yoji... I've been finding myself scouring the net for more of their original stuff and it's still amazing how good the best of it is. Of course, there's a lot of **** too...

This is freaking fantastic. Wherever you dug this up, thanks for sharing.

Garments aside, it's pretty striking how close the overall vibe, styling, art direction etc... are to lookbooks from contemporary brands. I mean, this is a fashion shoot and the retro thing is big right now but still... I actually thought this was the new Drake's campaign when it first came up

Yea, the oversized coats, Japanese fabrics, lux scarves, and boho cowboy hat feel very "of the moment." Reminds me of a few stores in San Francisco, where you walk in and it's all Evan Kinori, Kapital, vintage jewelry, DS Durga fragrances, vintage milsurp, and some leafy monstera plants in the corner.

Nothing. We’ve reached the end of fashion.

Turns out that curated eclecticism thing was just crypto-maximalism to keep busy while waiting for the cowboy kits, the flares the silk shirts...

I'm wearing Schneider and still life tees and sweaters still. I am the only constant in your fickle lives.

Resources? I’d love to see these collections.

Still got and wear my GATs and 5 zip so I guess I’ll weather the storm.
