I was in the Jil Sander store so I probably tried on the same stuff.

I'm buying the green cotton 4btn suit and the grey with blue/orange washed cotton suit and grey patent leather sandals.

Too many suits, though the grey 2 btn with light blue speckles is fresh as ****.

I'm all about the light grey trench, pants with folded belt line, sorbet shirts and sheer jackets.

Not going to pick anything up until I see everything first. The vest with hood was pretty dope too.

Was there a navy cotton peacoat in the Jil Sander collection for S/S? I thought I saw one at Barney's today, but I can't spot anything online for it.

Ya but I saw the olive version, a lot of the pieces are cut microscopic this season.

Ah good, at least I wasn't imagining it. It looked pretty damn good and I love the heavy cotton that was used. Too bad I'm short $1500 to drop on it though.

I noticed a lot of the unlined cotton jackets this season were very small.

I hope they come out with the blue sheer...but, the white one could work.

Speaking of sheer. I may pick this up tomorrow at Barneys.

You're not serious, are you? I can't picture that looking good on anyone. Also to add, I think Barney's Seattle has sold one or two of those already. I mean, wtf?

I don't remember it being that much, I could be wrong though. It's just an unlined peacoat with no frills really.

I'm all about anoraks though I'd have no use for something that serious. Lanvin windbreaker for me.

I don't think it's that bad, the magenta shirt makes is what's throwing it off.

I agree the runway styling is atrocious...but, throw that over a grey or navy suit with a white shirt and it'll be "haute".

I'm trying to replace that shirt under the anorak with a suit in my mind but it's impossible. That shirt is like the opposite of a green-screen, nothing in that image can be separated from it.
