It could be a medium-weight modal jersey with either a silk (gives the fabric a slight sheen) or wool blend (or both). Super soft.

>>10488106
I really like those dresses, not sure if I dig the left fit

>>10487567
just so that people are informed, modal is a fiber, so it'd just be jersey. but yeah i do think it is a silk jersey (though silk jersey does not actually have the characterstics of regular jersey)

Will bump with pictures of single-button-thin-notch-collar-slash-pocket-Raf-blazers over the decades. (You'll understand what I mean)

>>10488207

>>10488216

>>10488207
while the classic semens blazer is elegant, it's a bit dated rn tbh

>>10488221

>>10488230
The ones from 99 are definitely dated. Not laughably so, like frosted tips or Jnco jeans.

But its really interesting to see as time goes on how the cut changes ever so slightly, season to season. All the while, remaining the same classic Raf design.

>>10488232

>>10488242

>>10488248

>>10488238
I'm talking about the one you posted several times
it's the same exact jacket just in different fabrics. and of course I don't mean laughably so. it's just too last decade.

>>10488253

>>10488260
>>10488254
Yeah I know its the same jacket. That's why I said I was going to post pictures of this exact same jacket. But the cut does change from season to season.

>>10488271

>>10488230
The concept of silhouettes/fashion being 'dated' is laughable. It's a shape like any other.

>>10488273

>>10488278
>>10488281
Agreed

>>10488284

>>10488271
I'm beginning to think you may be retarded
it's the exact same fucking jacket. I've owned several of them through the years and still have at least two or three.

I'm referring to the details

Ok you're right, whatever. Props to you fam. Woo Hoo!

>>10488305

I'm really glad to see undercover getting posted. I was going to pop in here to talk about it. This AW15 collection is really doing it for me even though I really only wear all black (inb4 edgelord) and some whites/greys. I'm a big fan of the William Blake all over prints and as always the musical influence is welcome and surprisingly tasteful. I thought the use of Jesus and the Mary Chain (and to a lesser extent Television) imagery in the past few collections was polarizing and in some cases tacky. The splash of Bowie influence are on less on the nose coupled with the vague campy horror film vibe.

Anyway, big fan.

>>10488207
Just posting it because it does have all the details that make it noticeably Raf.

Is anyone here devoted to a particular designer/aesthetic for their wardrobe? For a large amount of time my wardrobe was heavily Ann D/early Raf focused but now I've found myself transitioning heavily into pure Yohji with an emphasis on movement and volume as well as a dandy edge.

I would love to support both aesthetics concurrently but somehow that feels inauthentic? Maybe I'm overthinking it.

>>10488371
there's nothing wrong with having different looks/styles

>>10488371
You shouldn't be stressin'. Yohji and Ann D are very synergistic looks.

>>10488230
>>10488254

Kek
>What is silhouette?
Surely ou don't think that
>>10488260
and
>>10488284
are cut in even remotely the same way.

>>10488387
I would disagree on that front. Silhouette wise they are far disconnected with Ann being slim sharp and flared, while Yohji is obviously very wide with more bulbous shapes and accommodating looks. Aesthetically the main link between the two is obviously their emphasis on black and elements of romanticism/more traditional attire. Ann is far more consistent in this category however while Yohji is often eclectic and eccentric is his array of aesthetics and looks, with each show being different from the last.

Referencing only the menswear here btw, their womenswear are far more compatible.

>>10488425
Agree with you on everything, but my point wasn't about the aesthetic of the runway shows, but more of the fact that one could quite successfully pair garments from both designers in a coherent outfit.

>>10488397
around 2007 is when raf cucked himself and started having shit produced in eastern europe instead of belgium, so yeah that's no surprise

>>10487330
>>10487328
>>10487323
>>10487345
I like these a lot

>>10488325
I like the Bowie thing actually, didn't think I would in theory but it's alright

Just two from ModaLisboa today.

Weak showing all around, but I figure in the interest in expanding awareness of small design circles I'll just put a few out there even if they aren't that spectacular.

>>10488835

>>10488838
Only mention this because of how wild those pants look. Those strips of fabric are so neat in motion.

I guess I'll just put some more images out there that I've been thinking about.

As much as I hate fur, man, what a seductive coloration here

>>10488966
Architectural curls, the one in the back there, I am absolutely enamored with them.

>>10488974
Saw them again looking back on Larsen's output. This short is so lovely. The composition with it is hardly much to speak of, but I really do love all form of those shorts.

>>10488982

>this blazer

wowza

>>10488992
There's just something magical about how that looks like it's mirrored, but has small, but delightful, inconsistencies. Love it.

More fur.

>>10488999
More Japanese designers incorporating a bit of uchuu-kei into their wears. Hoping to see this translated into men's collections sooner rather than later.

And that's all I have for today.

And some runway news (huehue). Honestly though, greenspace is highly aesthetic. I love clothing that looks good in a garden.

>>10488982

Those pseudo skirted pleats are incredible.

>>10489061
Is this satire?

But yeah I agree with you on the garden thing for sure.

>>10488371
As cliche as it sounds old Raf and Lang

Mostly military style stuff, cropped jackets and bondage

Around 2013-2014 the womens collections were on point.

now it's shiny trash.

>>10489237

>>10489243
If I recall correctly this collection is 2014-2015

And I'd gladly live on a time and place were all the girls went like this

>>10489007
Went into the Junko Shimada store in Paris, I absolutely loved the designs. It seems she only does women's wear, but there were some really neat things. A lot of what I saw had a early 20th century American/British nautical influence, but also very Japanese. I actually bought my brother's wife a dress while we were there (my wedding gift to them), it is absolutely stunning.

>>10489440
any pics of the dress? it sounds gorgeous

>you will never be a belgian beauty like raf
why go on living

I'm slowly building up my collection of pieces from The Soloist, recently bought a black pajama jacket from the A/W 2012 collection. Also thinking of what other sort of shoes can go with these fits, usually I just wear beat up low sneakers or derbies with them.

>The soloist
>imblying your a patrician

>>10491085
The soloist is fine. What's your problem? He wasn't even making claims of transcending "other pleb fashion." Takahiro Miyashita has held up MUCH better than others in maintaining a singular vision that always executes its purpose than most cut/paste JP designers. Moreover, he has resisted nearly all imitation. That's a respectable history.

>>10488325
Holy shit.

This is the first time I've been impressed with male fashion in... possibly ever. This actually looks pretty neat. Wonder how much it'd cost to look like this, though maybe with some tall boots or something.

>>10491694

if you want this exact outfit, it's gonna cost about $3000 right now, even finding these pieces second hand has been difficult for a reasonable price because the demand is high. You can attain this look for far cheaper though. The issue is finding a good long coat like this one. It's sold out most places full price at $1700.

>>10491091
>shit skin makes a picture of his Prada branded belt
Heh.

>>10491694
I hope you stick around here long enough that basic, post-2010 Undercover promo shots with 50% of the details filtered start to feel far less impressive to you. Good place to start, not keep seeking.

question

i've been slowly acquiring pieces that i'm comfortable wearing around my campus as i do my phd (chemistry), so i've been trying to cultivate a mixture of an academic look and techwear. my wardrobe is becoming increasingly engineered garments and arc'teryx veilance.

i've also grown to love how sneakers paired with anything make it look like you don't give a shit

i'm thinking of getting a pair of qasa highs in black, what do u think? are they as comfy as they look? are they at all water repellent or are they gonna be finicky and fall apart? plz help

>>10489255
i really dislike slp menswear but this is good
hm maybe i do like slimane

>>10491866
techwear doesn't really mix with relaxed yohji/comme stuff, they're the exact opposite of eachother. Techwear is primarily functional non-drapey synthetic stuff, while yohji is relaxed, non functional super drapey stuff made from natural fabrics like linen and wool. i wouldn't really recommend mixing in y-3 with mainline yohji either, so no, don't cop qasas. buy some boots/ low top leather sneakers.

>>10491728
In no way do I need that exact outfit, I don't care for brand or anything. Just a coat sorta like that, maybe a dark tan instead but with black pants and whatnot. Maybe some taller boots.

>>10491882
ya that pic isn't the best, but it's the only one i've seen that's got qasa's out of context

i'm actually selling my comme and yohji stuff cuz it doesn't mix ;) i feel u

EG and w+h cut their pants really slim, and i wear jeans mostly cuz canada

>>10491882
also, i already boots and low top sneakers but i want black comfy sneakers

>>10491889
they're one of the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever tried on, really, the sole is this super hard rubber with no cushioning, contrary to how it looks. they do look good in techwear fits though. where are you selling your comme/yohji btw?

>>10491905
I need to measure them out and take good pictures of them (they're from rakuten so they're not the nicest pieces unfortunately)

I'll post them in buy/sell/trade thread

i'm pretty busy with school rn otherwise i'd have put them up sooner :(

>>10491905
also fuck that's a bummer

k recommendations for comfy and interesting sneakers? looking autistic not a problem (scientist)
(preferably not garish, <$500, altho i do like pic related)

>>10491905
>they're one of the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever tried on, really

I'm going to shoot that in the other direction honestly. I didn't realize there was anyone who felt this way about the qasa. I guess this necessitates you trying them on, OP.

Anyway, I like Rombaut alright. They're a decent middle ground for tech/mainline yohji (although in some respect they give off a "middle ground" aesthetic as well which you may not like.)

Anyone know the name of the model? He walked Margiel SS16

He looks like a far superior version of myself and I feel like wallowing in self-pity/getting inspo

Can't find him at link related - there were 24 looks on the runway and they only have 18 models listed so he may of been left off

>>10488271

That looks likes such a shit fit

>>10488371
I get that it's coming from a mindset of purity in focus but I could not handle only buying from one designer. It'd feel like i'm surrendering my own sense of style, which is based on how I pair different influences, and replacing it purely with the vision of someone else.

Now dressing is hardly an art since it's simply a presentation of someone else's work, but at the very least being able to mix it up fills me with some level of satisfaction.

Name? Frame of glasses that is

>>10493083
Can we not do this sort of thing here? I think the more militantly narrow posters are about what they approve as worthy commenting here the more likely this general is to succeed in the long term. But I won't speak for everyone, maybe others are fine with it.

"questions", is my post not a question? If we cannot do it here then the OP needs to take it out of the post

>>10493226
I thought it would be obvious that any trivial, non-runway question about what some random man's glasses are would be obviously filtered from someone's catalogue of what they considered permissible, but apparently not. It would be perhaps worthwhile if it were somehow demonstrably connected to any of the topics here (beyond "well they /could/ be 'designer," (bleh)), but as far as I can see it's better suited in every way for the ID/w2c threads that are always available.

>fuck you guys, so pretentious

Yes I hope that is your impression. A healthy dose of pretense keeps a board stymieing off the dull, mediocre clutter. I'm not saying that your question necessarily is that, because those threads I pointed you to are worthwhile, I am just saying that there are differences in the level of pretense each space on a board *should* (in my lonely opinion) maintain. I hope this general reminds kind, but firm. Please seek assistance elsewhere. I am being helpful, and also telling you to leave.

That one is yohji yamamoto pour homme, will probably be hard finding something else just like it so i'd advise you to try to find another one on Y!jp or rakuten, ebay might be worth a look too

If you want that specific model look for the snaps, yohji has done other similar models a number of times so I reckon you can find something similar without looking too hard

Other than that i'd advise you to look for some sort of elongated blazer, don't really know where to direct you though

Wouldn't say so tbh, though I reckon some may disagree

i want to contribute and i love seeing what everyone else posts im afraid im just a dumbass and i also don't know where to find good links to post :(

Is there any chance we could split the image dumping and discussion into separate threads? With all respect, if I want to see a show, I'll find the photos on the internet. I'd rather come to one of these threads to join (mostly text-based) discussion over high fashion.

>>10500856
nice suggestion, maybe post just 1 or a few images of a collection plus the link to see all the photos

>>10492089
i love you
also w2c gold headdress

>>10500856
idk about that, thread seems pretty dead as it is, excluding stuff isn't gonna get it anywhere. just post anything related here

don't see why this is an issue either lol, so what if someone posts runway stuff in the fashion general? if we were talking full shows i'd understand but a handful of looks should be ok, keeps it bumped at the very least

this is a general after all so limiting it seems really silly

if anything there should be a new one that could be limited to discussion and text so we can see how it works out

board probably can't sustain two good fashion related threads though, this one has been way down on the bottom several times

Okay I'm back, the exhibition was quite interesting and had some nice pieces out. I took 70 pictures in total, some pretty blurry and from shitty angles etc, but I obviously won't post all of them.

There were eleven rooms, each with a different theme so even if I post just a couple from every room there'll be like 20/30 pics. I could upload a .zip if anyone wants me to, or post some of the (in my opinion) more interesting pieces.

She's one of the more exciting people in fashion right now. Her creations are truly beautiful and her approach using innovative techniques like 3D printing in a non-gimmicky way is truly admirable. I also like how she still manages to produce wearable garments.

I'm curious, has even ever had people approach them asking to use pieces they own in a shoot a la david casavant?

Guess I'll post it here too, cuz i'm short on time. Can anyone identify this dries parka? The seller says it has an aubergine-like color and he can't send any more pictures

>he can't send any more pictures

have fun getting scammed. there's no reason a seller can't provide more pictures.

You mean identify as in where to get more pictures or as in when it was made?

Can't help with the first for now but i'd guess from the pictures that the coat is from somewhere in the mid 00's

that listing has an hour left, maybe he isn't sitting around at home on a sunday or whatever waiting for someone to respond to the listing....

either way paypal has him covered
