Rick - 

http://www.grailed.com/listings/73834-rick-owens-2009-reversed-leather-14-hole

A beautiful pair of boots based on my research I am sure these are from s/s2009. I'm pretty sure that they are produced from the last that was created by Maurizio Altieri for Rick with a more bulbous toe box that slims down near the middle, similiar to certain Carpe workboots. The leather on these is extremely thick and stiff the toe feels like there is a piece of steel hidden under the leather, these could do damage if you wanted them to, and the texture of the reversed leather is incredible with a lot of "hairy" leather bits and visible veins. They come with the original old rick box which is HUGE and all black instead of the current drkshdw colour which I can but will require extra to ship.

Size 41

They have very few sings of wear a bit a heel drag and the back rubber sole is ungluing which can be fixed at home or by a cobbler for cheap. Some salt marks from this horrible winter which can be removed. They are distressed naturally and have a lot of "furriness" which is, of course, intentional.

Helmut Lang - 

http://www.grailed.com/listings/74662-helmut-lang-og-wrist-strap-jacket

Prada era Helmut Jacket 
Fabric is a brushed almost felt like cotton twill 
The fit is perfect, not as aggressive as Rick tailoring but very sharp due to the canvased construction, it holds its shape in the body and shoulders. Three semi functional button cuff with two buttons on the inner sleeve to hold the detachable wrist strap. The jacket is very old the straps were very stretched and had lost all elasticity so I personally replaced them with new nylon elastic tape typically used for lingerie, I kept the original button hole tabs. Two front patch pockets four Inner body pockets and one breast pocket, rear middle vent.

Size 44 fits tts and maybe a size larger. Will post Measurements soon.

Comme des Garcons / H+

http://www.grailed.com/listings/74273-comme-des-garcons-giant-square-pleated-everythin

Big trouble in little china or I wouldn't be selling these incredible shorts from Comme Des Garcons main Women's line fw2013. Fabric is a heavy 100% Poly twill.

They have cut the pattern out to be something like size xxxl then double pleated in the front and back in order to get the shorts down to a size M, the pleat captures the front zipper which makes it useless (but its still there) so they added a semi hidden zipper to the back left which looks like its been cut in post production. The hems have a thick double cuff. They almost look like a skirt when worn since the leg opening is so huge. In the winter I have worn them over pants for extra warmth. Two side pockets. No problems to report with these, the fabric is very stronk.

Also it comes with a thin houndtooth belt, when I bought these i guess someone had stolen the same fabric belt so they gave me one from another pair but they only had the houndstooth one, Its actually quite nice also. Forgot to photograph it.

Engineered Garments - 

http://www.grailed.com/listings/73838-engineered-garments-check-blazer

Blazer with four outer patch pockets and four inner pockets, neck tab with a button, lapel button, I used to wear this a lot.

Really well made as is most EG stuff with some interesting tailoring choices. One piece darted sleeve which has a nice slim fit that finishes with closed sergeon cuffs, the sleeve was finished with a proper cuff and then the buttons were sewn ontop to keep it closed.

there was a rip right under the top button that I had repaired last winter, to be honest the repair doesnt look super great on close inspection but since its sort of hidden by the button you cant really tell. Which I just realized i forgot to photograph but I will do so tomorrow.

Off Market for now.

it seems that the prisoner jacket has elastic cuffs while the slave has button cuffs.

Genuinely interested in what exactly you would consider to be shitty Aphex? 

I would go to rhum corner with as many people as you can and drink pina coladas and eat delicious food. Also go to guuu and drink huge beers and eat delicious food. If you are there on a weekend go to Kensington market and go to seven lives for tacos and wait in line and then eat delicious tacos.

Which tailor was that?

 

I have been told that waxman on parc is good although I haven't gone myself. I would not recommend le planche a repasser, I was recommended to them by someone who I trusted and was very disappointed they ignored my request to have a repair darned and just went over the whole a bunch of times with thick thread and I had to bring back something because the seam they resewed was not straight and therefor buckled. They apologized and did the repairs for no charge but still. I also normally go to alterations mike because 75% of the time he does great work and isnt super expensive, but again I have been disappointed with some results and when I bring them up to him he makes some excuse. 

 

The thing I have noticed about tailors here is that they just go ahead and do whatever they think is best and then surprise you with something you didn't expect, lack of communication.. Maybe I am going to the wrong people but I have yet to find anywhere that I want to return to consistently.

I want to take this opportunity to thank BILL for contributing everything he does to this forum!

 

Also I really loved this rick collection. I love that he brought back elements of his older seasons like the unhemmed denim with great washes, and stuff like the slings have been reimagined. I dont see any of this as new or "unrick" or anything, he started showing his collections with color and oversized shapes. Do people forget that he designed a collaboration for eastpak or that he was the head designer of revillon? I think this adidas this is the best it could be, It made me buy my first pair of adidas shoes ever. Rick has used the model of nike for his "dunks" and "geobaskets" and converse for his "ramones" so why is using anything adidas somehow unacceptable? If you dont like the shoes that is, of course, fine, but to condemn the entire company to being destroyed by a simple collaboration considering the history of this company I think is A. unintelligent and B. useless. This collection puts him more in the direction of Walter and Bernhard. all of this could, should and will be worn to underground gay clubs all over the world and it will be amazing!

 

All that being said sign me right up for oversized denim overall/sleepingbag and metallic silver running boots. actually sign me up for everything pink shorts included!

does your terrible attitude not get enough appreciation attention on sz? 

that thermomix needs more +rep

doing the mutek weekend, jw how many others are

I meant to comment here, I really like the clothes and the presentation. Screamin' jay Hawkins definitely helps.

 

 

 

 

 

Sorry for quality try to enjoy anyways.

it would be cooler if you received it it a bubblewrap airmail package tho.

EDIT: gotta post some today editedit: scanner isnt working gonna have to settle for preliminary iphone photos!

I'll probably go to the sale tomorrow, planned on going to the old port anyways.

will get around to post scans from the book eventually. 

Is anyone going to see either seth troxler or art department at stereo?

Thats a good point about the amount of looks shown here. Puffy braided knits are definitely a highlight for me, cant wait to see how they are adapted to be more wearable or how people choose to wear them anyways (hopefully me).

I like that though, its refreshing to see a designer develop an idea for longer than 6 months 

I also saw it a while ago and really did not enjoy it, if I was in theatres I would have walked out 30 minutes in. Since I was at home with my girlfriend and a friend we just made jokes until it ended. Perhaps this is not my type of film but the only thing I felt was nausea (at the Team America length sex scene) and boredom (at about everything else). The one thing I did like that I only realized in discussion after the film ended was how the director seemed intentional in his obliviousness of the "gender issue" that this narrative created. Not to say that I don't agree with how some people felt offended by that portrayal of a group, but mostly I found it interesting how someone could have an opportunity to really bring up certain arguments and instead just let that go and make a movie. 

 

Actually, Maybe that choice was the argument, how he didn't feel he had to create a movie for lesbians to give that group a role models or whatever and instead created a story that was passable as a "hetero" film to show that we are all the same blah blah.

 

For example the fact that you could have swapped out any character for the opposite sex takes away from the idea of hetero being the norm and homo being the other. By not arguing anything specifically he is letting the story (and therefor the characters (in this case minority ones)) not compare to something "normal".

 

Definitely open to discussion on this one.

 

All that to say I wouldn't watch it again.

Yeah high and low was really great.
