Picked this up the other week for 7 bucks at consignment shop. I ended up only getting this and passed on a pretty superb blue Burberry corduroy suit I found because I don't plan to take over Metropolis anytime soon. Scarf feels amazing, really nice and warm, but that's the only tag on it. Seems like a long shot, but any hope of IDing it?

Looks like a nice scarf, but I think you're in the wrong thread.

enjay, yes that does look very nice, but I think individual items are best posted here:

Put it together with another vintage item or two, and post a pic of the whole fit back in this thread!

I figured it was time.

I actually did for a long time. Long shaggy hair and unruly sideburns down to my jaw line. Figured it was time to clean up for awhile.

If we get nothing else from this thread, this was worth it. Nice fit by the way, though, I'm hoping you will bust out some of those Yoji pieces. If you kept any that is.
Not to deviate form the original intent of this thread, but since we are all clothing nerds here, I thought you guys might get a kick out of this.

This is a piece from my schools permanent collection. Apparently they have over 6000 designer pieces, dating back to the turn of the century. Issey Miyake No. 135, origami sleeveless top. The woman who runs the department says he's got a whole team of mathematicians working with him to come up with these kinds of designs.
