Romantic Europe meets NYC: the ROBERT GELLER thread

[TACO_FLAVORED_KISSES]

Looking at the lounge shirt, any idea which size might have a pit to pit of 42-43inches?

 

[Meis]



Do the sleeves loosen up some or are they constricting at all? Do you think sizing up would throw the fit off completely or get a nice relaxed fit?

I haven't worn mine (I've got the charcoal long-sleeve and sand 3/4) enough yet to know if they'll loosen over time. That said, the sleeves are slim but they aren't so tight they're constricting, especially the 3/4 sleeve. The cuffs on the long-sleeve are small, but they don't bother me at all when I'm wearing it- I just have to pull the cuffs down when I put it on. Both shirts are pretty comfy. You're about the same size as me so you'd probably be fine with a 46.

The 46 is 19.5 pit-to-pit and roughly 25-26 long

ya they loosen up, but not much
I wore the long sleeve version a lot this winter as an undershirt (pretty sure that is what it is for) and it was really warm, I <3 it

I e-mailed Geller a few days ago but no response. Sadface.

Oh I agree that there is or should be a market for it. I just think he's still growing as a designer and as a company so most stores aren't willing to take that big of a risk on him yet. I mean, Barneys just starting stocking him the previous season (bout time to be honest!) and if anyone's going to push his designs, it's most likely going to be them.

Barney's have been carrying Robert Geller since the Fall 2010 collection to be honest. The buys they make aren't bad but when the pieces are involved it's just always small two rack status. When compared to John Varvatos Star who takes up a whole side of the room (not more than Theory though ugh)

I didn't mean literally Geller himself, haha

 

[thatoneguy]

Oh haha nvm

No they're fine. It's only the bit around the wrists, and even then it's just cotton and stretches after all. If you size up it will be too boxy in the body. Stay tts.

 

[Noctone]

Yeah definitely don't size up, it's already a somewhat loose shirt (except for the sleeves, obviously) by nature.

I only own a few Geller pieces and just picked up this hoodie

I've got tons of hoodies but this one was different enough to make me want it. It's nice and light, so perfect for california. The hood and pockets are this silky rayon type material.

Stel's seems to have received some stuff. This is taken from their blog:

 

[bwahahahaha]

Stuff seems to be trickling in to acrimony as well.

 

[melonadejello]

Yep. Zip blazer looks nice in sand.

Aloha has been sitting on there first one or two shipments for the last few weeks. Dunno why.

[For Robert Geller we are carrying size 44-50 and our first shipment includes the obligatory denim and button downs (geometric pattern, andreas, 3/4 length shadow plaid), oversized color blocked sweatshirt, fabric combo hoodie, summer-weight tencil flight jacket, and this season's engineer pant.

Desi always good for the recon.
