Don't bother T.

A friend of mine told me that they stock RO, Julius and DD. Went into the store the other week to check it out - unfortunately they're one of those stores that replicate designs.

They copied the RO swing pant, RO high collar, various of _7 pieces, DD oversized hoodie, IS coat - but of course in far inferior fabrics.

They have a label called "Danni Dilemma" or something like that They even have similar swing tags! With all the super awesome english manifesto like Julius'.

Saw the DBSS shoes and wondered why they're so cheap.. not sure if they're authentic though... The SA told me that they bought it in Japan.

^ truth.

Keep pming me with your offer/trades gogo!

bumping this up

Cant believe I'm doing this...

Up for an interest check is the blazer is by Julius FW04 "Post Proletariat" - made from "Inflamed Ram".

As much as I love this jacket, and knowing the fact that I will NEVER ever find this jacket again - I find it a little small on me...

The condition is immaculate. Coming from smoke/pet free home. As much as I love the piece I've only worn it out twice. So if I had to rate it out of 10 - I would say 8.5-9/10. Never been to a club or a lounge or a bar with it, never worn it out when its raining.

The piece is very substantial so it's quite heavy in weight. I fold all my leather pieces so they don't stretch.

I would like to trade it for another leather piece so please let me know if you have anything you want to unload, otherwise, SOLD

Ah sure thing B! I PM'd him when he was still online before - enquiring about the weight but I told him I'll have a think about it. So he'll probably sell it to you Let me know how it goes! I did PM him back shortly after though.

Eitherway, I might have found another alternative - Still Sarti but 100% cashmere

Oh damn, Melv I also pm'd deleuze about the sarti scarf eariler today aswell. Hopefully one of us gets it and maybe pass it on to the other if it doesn't work out?

nah i meant ur gf Nick...

Ah ye thought Hide-san was affiliated with them.. I might shoot him an email if all fails.

Was looking at _7 stoles but really liking the dual-colour finishing on some of Sarti's scarves... purple and black would go with most things! urgh should've just insta-copped before when the seller is still online.

@ Nick - mangz I fell sick as a dog a couple of days ago because of the fkn weather. A day before I leave for QLD too.. sigh. Going to a fine dining restaurant with your gf on her birthday with a sore throat and a fever is a mega ultra epic fail.

Thanks for the heads up Jim!

pm sent. Let's hope its still there

I've only handled sarti scarves once while I was in Japan last year... didn't put much thought though as I don't really wear scarves...

is $220USD a good price? nfi about sarti's rrp :/

Incase deleuze's is sold.. you know any other webstores I can check out?

in desperate need of a scarf to keep me warm...

any suggestions?

I'm pretty keen on this sarti scarf but scared that it may be too lightweight for winter? we're talking about aus winter though... any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Nathan, the owner, is a local sufuer

Up for grab is a pair of leather gloves by NAT. Just received these in the mail this morning from NVREND gallery. Brand new with tag.

Unfortunately they're slightly big on me - tagged as 8.5 which equates to Men's Medium.

Retails for $285AUD. Looking for what I paid - PENDING.

It's great to have that dream and goal to establish a flagship store! What other stores have you approached?

Fat visited our showroom during RAFW

Ah man. Copped a _7 suit last week - was shipped with EMS but it looks like it got lost in the mail? should've been here by now... tracking number comes up with nothing either.

luckily seller is willing to refund the full amount... but fuck i want the suit

Is there incu store in Melbourne? Seems quite nice to stock there, no? Melv?

We approached them prior to RAFW Rob, unfortunately the collection is not quite where they're heading. Vincent explained that Incu is going a little more dressy and mixing this up with sportswear.

I guess we'll just have to open our own flagship store in VIC? haha fuck I'm dreaming big

trade me offer me buy me

^ We're still trying to find the right stockist in VIC unfortunately... by far the hardest state in AUS - which is really surprising.

Don't lose hope yet kuu ;p theres always next season! hah

Song for the Mute, P

Kuu - they might be getting in more Claude Maus pieces shortly if I'm not mistaken?

I think we'll be one of the first few labels that will be delivering Summer pieces tbh. Our delivery will start around late August. However, if you're interested in any of our pieces - let FT know and as soon as we get them back from the makers, I'll make sure we send it your way immediately.

They'll be carrying nearly the entire collection... just PM me if you need any info

so Nick... AV boots.. yes?

lets try this again

you see you buy

Not that I need to mention but the leather was ridiculously soft and the fit pic up on the Zekka site doesn't do it justice. Really great irl. Recommend you getting your hands on some if you're interested Melv.

That's great to hear man. I know I'm being silly but I was scared that the leather would be similar to CoN lulz. I might just shoot Frol an email and see if my size is available...

sotm are really coming nicely.. hope to see a larger collection now.. any plans to do footwears? jewels? etc?

Thanks Rob! RE: footwears, jewelery - never say never! I can say that a footwear range is definitely on the cards but we simply do not have the resources and capabilities to do so atm, maybe in a couple of seasons time when we have a bigger team perhaps? We're still taking baby steps to get our clothing range off the ground.

The deadline to create a new collection + producing the current season is actually really tight. To put it into context - sales cut off date for our summer collection Au Clair was 3rd week of May. We now have to produce all the garments for late August delivery - it is now the first week of June.. that leaves us around ~2 months? within that time we need to design our new AW collection, create samples, do the photo shoot and finish the look book to ensure late September showings... absolutely no room for mistakes - stress. But hey, seriously can't imagine myself doing anything else but this
