Random fashion thoughts

[sipang]

This umpteenth sandals discussion is going nowhere fast, allow me this derailing

(egoistically center-aligned, apologies)





Today I present you with a piece of history, an aberration excavated from the archeological depths of fashion hell (NYtimes archives in this case). This is the unfortunate collision of worlds that were never meant to meet, crystallized for eternity (and for your viewing pleasure) in this long forgotten editorial.


Behold...

Featured below: Thom Browne, Carol Christian Poell, Julius, Rick Owens, Miharayasuhiro, Prada, Raf Simons, Jil Sander...

ok I don't hate sandals but these last few pages have made me reconsider my opinion ...

some terrible examples huh.

that model looks like a gay Eason.

tautology.

 

[notwithit]



How can you guys embrace the Lanvin Tevas but so vehemently reject a simple pair of grey New Balances? Jesus christ, you guys are way too sensitive about the blogosphere.

Yeah, but hating both is logically consistent, right?

rec me sunglasses based on this look.

thanks for the recs. hopefully i won't end up with these:

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

I wear those as slippers when I'm at home indoors.

I'm wearing them right now. (0)

The color is really green, like kaki green, or moss green, but it the picture didn't get it (the runway pic is closer).
Composition : 100% cotton
The fabric is pretty thick and the braid makes it quite heavy compared to any usual pant.

"Creases in the fabric are intentional. Texture will alter with wear and cleaning. This item has unfinished hems. The raw edges will fray with repeated wear and cleaning. The shape of the garnment may alter slightly with wear and cleaning."

holy **** shah .... that was the longest post I've ever seen! but very cool... thank you!

Mosley Tribes. I forget the model, but it should be easy to find.

i want all my pants to be lined

 

[Master Milano]

Does anyone know where I can get a pair of Helmut Lang jeans (slim fit) ? ( aside from the size 28 on ebay )

 

[Parker]

mr. shah.. are those cdg items "shoppable"? or you just teasing?
where is the pink panther collection? that's my jam.

 

[the shah]

mr parker, the wool peacoat in milled fabric i noted was for sale but revoked (quite appropriately) by the seller. the rest are just garments from personal archives or runway shots people cared to share, so unfortunately a giant tease even for me. but hopefully you too can appreciate the images for what they represented over all these years. I hadn't been able to find some of the vintage ones before so I was rather excited if you couldn't tell.

there is an ebay seller located in hong kong that does indeed carry a nice collection from time to time, I will send you a message about it. he is legit, though my jacket did arrive smelling like the house of a chinese neighbor I had when I was 11 for better or worse I had to part with it because of my mistake in sizing ...
