In the spirit of recent threads by Who and Fok, I thought it'd be nice if we could all recommend some "out-there" brands to each other.

Post a recent WAYWT/description of your style and the price range you're usually in, and then recommend a brand to the user above you.

I'll start: Most of you know my schtik, but I'm basically just a high school kid who's in to Ivy-inspired stuff with a funky/modern feel. I'm after low-mid range stuff.

kunk, thanks much! I really dig that cardi with leather elbow patches from SS09. IS FASR koppable anyplace outside of Sweden?

As far as gay astronaut clothes go, I've recently been listening to a band called Miracles of Modern Science which is basically a group of Princeton orchestra dropouts who now play "orchestral space-pop" in spacesuits. Here's an article on them; they mention the spacesuits about halfway down the page. Maybe you could email the band and ask where exactly they got the spacesuits?

Here's a photo:
