Women's HL?

 

[Urthwhyte]

yup, fast retailing owned, bondage strapless, and sans menswear Helmut.

Lol!
I still like HL women's ..for women hehe. I do, however, find it weird that they decided to have a diffusion line along side the helmut Lang-less line.

 

[Urthwhyte]

I like some of the more unisex pieces well enough to give them a chance, gendered clothing is so passé (5)

Diffusion line seems to be Fast experimenting with something a bit more fashion forward at a price point similar to COS. Fully expect next Uniqlo collab to either be Theory or HL once they work out the kinks

how do seasonal collections work in australia? is lanvin f/w 12 in he store right now, and it's just selling out-of-sync with the seasons, or do they hold back and are always a collection behind?

Hold it behind, generally. Or just get it in and **** seasons.

On the other hand, end of season sales usuall work well for the Australians that buy online .

^^
Now most stores in Australia that carry high end labels like Lanvin, Dior, Givenchy or even Paul Harnden, carry stock that is current with Europe.
Stores like Harrolds, Assin, Marais, Eastern Market.

anyone else take issue with paying for designer wares based on the 'build quality' aspect? i've come to understand why someone/I would pay a full retail price that's fairly high for a more niche brand label when it comes to either uniqueness, so there's just better design there or interesting features, etc, and then the pure economics of higher costs associated with creating those designs in everything from their time/creativity to interesting materials to smaller production runs, etc... but I've owned stuff ranging from the Gap and H&M to the mid-level guys like W&H, Ervell, etc and nothing's every really reached a stage where it's being worn down that the 'quality' differences are evident. Like if I owned one pair of jeans, in theory I'd only realize after 6-12 months that my Gap ones are junk and fell apart while my APC's would only show wear after a year, and then my Japanese repros are still holding up after 2-3 years (I don't own any of these jeans, just hypothetical), but nowadays I have such a large rotation of stuff and live such a low activity lifestyle that nothing seems to really get any real wearing that durability becomes a factor. So while I buy stuff for good cuts, features, fabrics, etc, buying it for durability seems like a moot point... I mean if I have 8 pairs of jeans and 10-15 other pairs of general pants, am I really going to see that the ones I bought are fading in better than the ones I could have bought? I'm not convinced. And when it comes to fashion items, even in a general public sort of way of 5 year trends, I'm more likely to sell or donate something because I'm just tired of wearing it long before it becomes an item that's actually worn out and needs to be replaced... I've reached a point where my wardrobe is just so full of stuff that even if i find some of it boring, I really can't justify buying another shirt becuase I have 30 practically new looking ones right here and they barely get worn...


anyone know what I'm talking about?
