Love TB pant (where'd you kop?) but not with the Lanvins. Could use a jacket.

thanks man. trousers are from Barneys. Colette has some good ones too. You cant see it in the pics but the bottom is unfinished (some of his SS10 pieces are purposefully like that).

I almost wore this unlined rag & bone summer blazer instead of the pullover but i thought it was too formal for just walking around/going to stores.

lol. you could use a seam ripper to take em off. for some reason i really like it when it is way down at the bottom of the pant leg. his more formal pants dont have it. woo hoo 700 posts. im comin' for ya jet

Nothing formal about a summer blazer. Still casual wear. It'd balance out the rise / waistband on the pants (which is to me what makes them a win). Actually a TB or BBBF jacket owith a pattern (check?) would really kill it there.

How high are you wearing those trousers? They look massively hiked up (as per Listi's point) (though they look to be high-waisted so maybe that's the TB aesthetic?)

It's just the rise and the fact that there's no belt, they're not hiked and if you sagged them it would look marsupialed.

Then maybe they shouldn't have been bought in the first place, because if they'd look marsupialed sagged, and pretty bad not sagged, then it's not a good cut, and should be avoided... Sq always makes +J look great, so it's not his proportions, it's quite obviously the pants just not working very well.

they're made to be worn with a jacket. its a vintage look and is intended.

lol. thankssssss listi. the pants are really high rise and are roomy where the upper back thigh meets the butt. so i think they look kind of bad sagging. although, in-line with your theory, i believe they are designed to be worn more casually than i did given the material (thick canvas-type cotton like his shirts if you are familiar at all) & unfinished pant legs. i added the cuff and the front/back creases myself to change the look a bit.
