I want to thank Davidlee for pointing out the stumbling block of center creases in pants. For me, this (lack of) detail just did not register at all when observing fits here or elsewhere, nor when assessing my own efforts of imitation. Among my own collection of second hand trousers every pair that could fall into the category of "suit pants" has come with creases. I can understand, though, how pretty much zero drycleaners are going to see the label and know the best treatment for the garment in it's intended environment.

cinched waist jacket in a beautiful brown tweed fabric



Only thing is, there is a fatal issue (no clue what it means

Quote: The unique design is characteristic. A silhouette is Yoji ならではですね in loose, too. As for feeling of wearing, it is supposed, but, as for the fatal damage, is not supposed.

I think that's just meant to mean there's no serious damage to it, but it has been slightly worn.

If anyone knows how this F/W season jackets fit, the one available on Barneys or La Garconne, "double layer," please let me know. Not sure if I should stick with size 3 or size down to 2.

i.e. double front jacket

Anyone? TIA

A translation of the listing previoiusly mentioned by zapatiste:


Quote:

Literally, "sign of use is able to be caught sight of, but fatal damage, etc, is not able to be caught sight of."

They definitely aren't saying there is a fatal issue. Rather, they are saying they don't see one. This doesn't necessarily mean that there isn't one that they don't see or don't choose to see, but that seems unlikely, and I would assume in this case that the pictures accurately portray the state of the garment.
