yeah I voted for adsurgo too! yours are AWESOME! I was thinking about voting for hjj before adsurgo posted his pictures but his honeycombs weren't as badass as some other jeans. So I decided to wait for pictures of the other contestants And I'm glad I did.

cheep: your whiskers and lapfade are sick and so are your honeycombs but I really hate your backpockets(no offence!)

poly800rock: really cool vintage-like fade. But it looks like the creases didn't really have a chance to set in before you washed it again.

386: your fades are sick! But you washed your jeans too many times IMO. I think it would've been a battle between you and adsurgo if you didn't wash it so many times...

I've been lurking since the beginning of this contest(this isn't my account btw) and it has been really great!

In Holland, the fees are 1538 Euro's for a year.

Ah Scheisse.....

Ahh!!! Please, people from antwerp, post something!!! I'm all psyched now.

I've always thought that a sample sale was a few evenings where specially invited people could buy stuff of the newest collection for a cheaper price?

'rough'? its 'raff'. like, "get that fucking riff-raff out of my bar",

or the word 'raft' minus the 't'. it rhymes with autograph.

why pronounce it with an 'ou' sound if that 'a' is completely unambiguous?

the 'simmons' pronounciation is the next best thing, in my opinion, and i

still use it often.

'sighmons' should never be an option.

Ok, I'm Dutch, so this is how it should be pronounced:

Ruff Sea-môns

And while I'm at it:

Hedi Slimane:

Hey-dee Slea-mahn

Dries van Noten :

"Drees fun-no-ton"

Kris van Assche :

"Kris-fun-ushe"

Veronique Branquinho :

"Veer-row-neek Brun-queen-ho"

Yeah, I've read about an Ann Demeulemeester sample sale too. But the Dries sale will probably be for his S/S '08 collection, which I wasn't very fond of... I'm aiming for the knits in the F/W '07 collection.

Thanks btw!

I was wondering, do any of you guys know if, there will be a sale at the Dries van Noten store in Antwerp? If yes, do you also know when? And how much discount?

theres a thread on antwerp sales..

I really liked the F/W '07 Dries van Noten collection:

Those sheer knits are incredible!!

I went to Newcastle(UK). And it sucked BIGTIME. We went to the best Chinese restaurant there and the food was über-shit too.

Omg, please keep me up to date with those sample sales!

LOOK WHAT I'VE FOUND!!

omg... some of those jeans look just like real vintage levi's(or maybe they are real??). I'm not sure whether they're real or not because they got some pictures of some japanese repros too... SICKKK!!

sorry if this link has been posted before.

The old collection was pretty decent. The new collection has some aweful fits though. Backpockets on some of the jeans are TOO big and the backpocketdesign on one model is soo ugly, it's like... diagonal, too big and they're badly placed. I really like the fit on the jeans with "DRY" on one backpocket though. And the selvage jeans are pretty nice too.

Weird thing is... I bought a japanese denim none selvage pair from the "for our friends" collection that's worth 240 euros(about 340 USD) love the fit btw. But the selvage jeans are 230 euros(324 USD), and an other selvage model is about 250(353 USD)... Maybe it's the Japanese denim? Or maybe the 240 euros jeans are part of the "first class"quality collection?. Yeah, I heard blueblood devides it's jeans into quality "classes"(don't know how to call it) first, second and third class.(don't know how it works and not sure)

Oh, and what I really like is that some of the models are a bit tapered on the bottom of the hem, you can't really see it but it prevents the jeans from crawling under your shoes:)

edit: I got the 240 euros jeans for cheap btw.(60 euros/$85 hehe) NO WAY that I would pay 240 euros for a non selvage pair of jeans if I could get a selvage pair for less.

Does anybody know any good/cheap hostel in Antwerp? I'm Going this Friday untill Sunday. Please provide me with their website (or adress) too

thanks!

WOw! When did you buy this?

^^another bastard! Damnit! It's so frustrating that we can't find these things here in the Dutch thrift stores!

I'm not very in touch with womenswear, but I saw a Simpsons photo spread from Harper's Bazaar and the Viktor & Rolf models had some strange light units sticking out from their backs. This is F/W 2007 RTW. Are V&R known for this "unwearable" look?

No, they've got plenty of collections that are wearable. Their F/W collection is wearable too, they only presented it as a look that seemed unwearable. But if you remove al the equipment/lighting that was used for the runway show, most pieces are just normal clothes.

^haha! The party was awesome, but I don't know if I'll be going again! There were guys(including a friend of mine) that wore heels and people went totally crazy! Bas Kosters was the DJ, the music was cool. I actually kicked someone with my awesome geta and ran away, it was crazy.

I don't know for sure yet, but I'll be going to Club 8 tomorrow (friday the 31st). If anybody's interested, please PM me, and we'll chill somewhere, eat pancakes on the Rozengracht (always wanted to eat there), or whatever. I have an introductionday tomorrow too (I'll be going to The Gerrit Rietveld academy), so I might invite other people with me, it'll be fun!

3 options:

1: grow an ass

2: pull up your jeans

3: buy some jeans with a low(er) rise

The lead singer of Cansei de Ser Sexy is pretty fuckin hot:

hahaha, just kidding:

and the rest of the band:

It's actually Yann Tiersen

I'm searching for the list of Lanvin homme, does anybody have it?

^^ full selvage man... And he got it for $6,99 too... I hate both of you guys... omg... here's the link btw:

I was wondering, does anybody know the name of the last song of this show? You can hear it here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9Vb43uTIV0&mode=related&search=

I've been searching for it everywhere! But to no avail...

I bought some Royal pants a while ago(the discontinued selvage one) size 30x33 and they streched about 2 inches... And I just bought some Frontiers(the 11 oz. greyish one. forgot the name). The tag says the waist size is 28 but it definately fits like a 31.

so then, what do you guys think these would fetch if i ebayed them or something like that.

Some go for $2000+ but they're not in such a good condition as yours are. So I guess you can sell them for at least $5000?(if they're not repros). Well... I'm not sure... I'm not a pro:P
