Benes, I have this weird concept of your wardrobe being incredibly small and unnecessarily large at the same time.

Small wardrobe with pants that have incredibly large thighs maybe? Or large wardrobe of unnecessary pieces and small amount of clothes that actually seem to work?

Sorry Ben, just my thoughts.

I am collapsing it to a few key looks that I like. It's essentially the same looks/shapes that I think work on me or I enjoy. So yes, in that sense I do want it to be small. I really like for example the yohji trouser + jacket + top "formula"
and so I just have many permutations of it.

What I took from posting here was that for me the right move was to:
1) get rid of all of my graphic t's except for maybe a few (kept the dead meat tiger one)
2) Get rid of my low quality pieces/pieces I don't wear
3) Expand the pieces I can wear with yohji

I think I have done the above well.

I also would like a few nice slim items. That stuff that I am working on by trial and error (since u can return stuff for yoox credit for free and just try again with another item). There was that fit where it was my black jeans + button down and bomber that was very well received. So from that I took if I want to do slim shapes it should be fairly minimal with just maybe one interesting piece.

There definitely are unnessary pieces left over from this shift but they are slowly making their way on to the bay, or into a thrift store. And none of the left overs are RPs. Not sure what of RPs have not been something directly workable into all the yohji i have been doing.

That's a pretty sweet find!


I know! I was happy......funniest thing was when I walk into regular Neiman Marcus and they're selling the EXACT same jacket for $850. HAHA.
