What is the difference between bovine and vachetta ?

You know, I asked Matteo the same question but I accidentally deleted his response. I recall him saying "bovine" is a thicker/tougher leather.

Yeah bovine is only coming in reverse and it will pretty much be thick reverse calf.

I gotta say the reverse leathers look a bit chalky. They need a good layer of wax like the old ones had imho.

On a side note, i am once again banned from stylezeitgeist.

The altercation happened in the CCP thread where i said i thought deepti's work was boring. Someone called me silly and uniformed to which i replied why are you being a dick, i am just expressing an opinion. Anyways faust came in said some stupid **** as he always does so i told him ban me your forum, it has tumbleweeds going through it anyway. I don't think i'll be rejoining ever again. I just didn't expect my ban to happen after i said i found a designer's work boring.

TLDR: Faust is still a ****.

GBS just wrote an essay about an offhand comment in response to his shoes looking like Vans on SZ, good luck Deepti didn't catch you shitposting about her collection

 

[nyarkies]

Does Deepti even post there? Even if she did, I doubt it will be annoying as GBS. The guy just puts himself on a pedestal and makes sure that you know it.

 

[nicelynice]

Nah I was just joking as Sinnedk said something like "it's like CCP with zigzags" or something when that's obviously not the case for her stuff haha

Ehh idk NN my comment is oversimplifying it but I stand by it. I feel deepti stuff is an extension of ccp and kinda boring. I looked through the look book or whatever was published and the most obvious high neck leather jacket was just the CCP high neck with different seams. I saw that all over the place. The only place I liked it was the pants I believe. Other than that I dismissed it.

I was hoping for a similar discussion on SZ and for ppl to clearly read into some sarcasm but they got their panties in a bunch and resorted to insults. Hence, at that point I figured my tenure there is done.

I was thinking of calling Faust a **** on my way out but I felt that would be derivative like deepti' collection.

SZ would be way better without Faust.

There was some exchange about double riders recently in which he expressed great fear that if he wore his (exquisite, tasteful, masterfully made) double riders, some (shudder) ordinary person wearing a (blecch) mall-brand double rider might see him, and think the two of them had something in common, can you imagine? I'm going to need my fainting couch just writing it out.

That is epically sad.
