some of the trenches he did could of passed as a slim version of the gap, in person that is. they looked better on the runway

LA Guy (or anyone else that knows) - is there a pic of the Geller M65 somewhere besides the runway one on style.com? I want to pick up a M65 jacket this fall and was planning on getting the Nom De Guerre, but it sounds like it's being made of cotton this time around instead of wool.

Psh, I'd love to get some Prorsum this season again, but the coats seem like they've gone up like 1.5k since last Winter. How bout you get your relative to give some fellow SF's some charity coats?

the prorsum coats for this winter are already in stores?

Not at stores yet but I when I went to the SF store they were preparing for the trunk show so a SA let me look through what they were getting for the Fall.

Some of the coats were 3.8k for cotton/poly trenches this S/S as opposed to the 2k that I had seen them for the previous S/S. I am only assuming (as I didn't inquire about the prices) that the same markup is going to carry over for the winter coats.

And you can add on that all the "cool kids" who hype Cloak (or as the idiots say "Croak") were never aware of it/buying it/affording it when the brand was still around and because Robert Geller was associate with Cloak he is cooler by association.
