Uncle Jamima

i wish i had a camera

i know no point in no pics

but girl in the RISD cafeteria today looked like she was wearing head-to-toe ann demeulemeester in that sort of cream color she uses. Cropped slim cream blazer with popped color over a long drapy white dress that was longer in the back than front - looked like a more elegant DRKSHDW piece over white tights with like cream / black patent pumps. Also - her hair was dyed white and puffed back over her head. Most elegant looking shit I think I've ever seen in person.

I am coming to visit you and you are introducing me to this girl.

also, do you know Andy Romer? he's your year @ RISD. kinda is a human pear. nice kid.

Do not know Andy Romer. Send me his picture or something and I'll keep an eye out.

I've been here an entire year and this is the first time I've ever seen her - she must live off campus out in Olneyville or something and is probably in apparel design so she'd never really be where I am.

18 month late reply. FWIW, I'm pretty sure they were talking about Katie Gallagher.

openchestwounds, what is the actual waist measurement on those and what model is it? raw? -thanks!

They are a little above what you are looking to spend, but still cheaper then some of the other suggestions:

I really like the western one.

I live approx. five minutes from the location of the old store. They closed down that store last year. The owner moved the operation to his basement as an online only place for a few months. It wasn't as successful as he needed it to be, so he is entirely shut down now. Not quite sure why the online store is still active.

off topic: does anyone know what that leather jacket/shirt is on http://www.xanga.com/take5hk

I want it because it is most likely raw/onewash and better quality that the italian stuff I already have. Also, the prices seem fairly close, so why not go for the better stuff.

I have been reading these forums for about 2 months now in preparation to start buying some real denim, but unfortunatly I haven't seen what I've been really really hoping to. I am making the transition from brands like Diesel, and am a real sucker for back pockets that zip (i.e. - Yarik/Slammer). So, my question is, Does anyone know of any quality selvedge jeans with this feature? To make my search even harder I would need/prefer a fairly slim cut. I haven't seen anything like this here, but if anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great. I also noticed a guy here who makes jeans (Ande). Does anyone know if he or any other tailor does oneoffs or custom requests? Thanks in advance.

That's exactily what it is. One of my friends told me about it so I checked it out. Its just really stiff, so the fit seems odd. I think in time it will loosen up nicely.

Here is a pic, though not very good, of a Type 2 jacket i found in black the other day. It says it is "rinsed" whatever that means, but it feels very rigid to me.

Question: Anyone know if diesel 88b (onijo) wash is raw or one wash?
