haha i was waiting to see what you'd do with the blazer kg, that is ridiculously good

edit: junya, or the pieces i've handled, do have a hobo vibe, you just have to be able to carry it off. the fact that he's like, ripped etc probably helps

I like the trousers and jacket, I think. But the sweater feels out of place.

@mumma's fit looks good. Very clean and a nice contrast between the structured blazer/jacket and the more relaxed looking shirt and trousers.

I really like the way there's the conflict between the clearly involved construction details and the patchwork nature. Yes it's hobo inspired, but so patently designed.

I like kgfan's fit but have to agree with Frank about the sweater. With such jacket and pants (which are already rather colorful) the overly colorful screaming sweater is a bit too much, imo.

For me the sweater makes the fit :fence:

I think it's the red in the sweater that doesn't work for me. I would like it better if it were in the same tone range as the trouser and jackets.

On the other hand, i guess the sweater is just the pound once you're in for the penny.

Don't think the kgfan fit is very good. The over-the-top patterns and deconstruction might work well on the runway, but looks cartoonish and bummy here, especially when you take into account his normal modus operandi of sleek looking, darker colored fits (which generally work much better).


Yes, but look at that spotless room.

I like it but its very niche. Def not what Id call wearable.

I wish there was a full shot though.

I like the sweater as is. Id like to see it with simpler (not not clean black) pants. I think as is is probably ideal.

I think the criticism of that kg fit is misguided. I get if you wouldn't wear that yourself, or that you'd style it more conservatively, for any number of reasons, but it's hard to say that it's not a coherent look or that he fails to pull it off.

I found a full size photo of the entire outfit. I hope kgfan does not mind me posting it.
