Raf Simons S/S 08

[hedkandi67]

OMG i made such a din here!

I pronounced it as 'raf seemens', until someone told me it was 'saimons'.

I was too fucking irritated so i came for help here, pardon me.

[mike lowrey]

I'd go with Ralf Saimons just to be safe and as american as possible

[onemancult]

YOU can BUY RAF's SEMEms??!

better than heidi slim-main

[ChaseDizzy]

It's Not Slim-mane?!?!?!? What Is It?!

[mr fluffernutter]

Eddie Slim-men

[Fuuma]

Slea-Man

....

[ordo]

I prefer Rick Owens, just because I can pronounce his name.

[onemancult]

SLEA-mahn.

....

all these designers got cum for a last name.

[hahnstch]

slim-money?

[Fuuma]

Actually just watch Oss117 (subbed), there's a character named "Slimane" and the movie is hilarious.

*SPAM* Even better, people who come have a drink we Mass, 2000db and me when we're in NYC (first week of sept) will get to hear us pronunce brand names properly. We can explain Lanvin, Dior Homme and Balenciaga free of charge but Hermès and Castelbajac will require a premium. World leader Dhodonggo (Joey) could possibly show up but he's in more demand than Kate Moss so it'll cost you.*SPAM*

Here's a close up of 2 styles of the sunglasses...

They will retail for $300 for acetate frames and $325 for aluminum.

[Yuropean]

I actually like the boots for some reason...*shruggs*

[Tiranis]

Read an article yesterday that said they won't drop until F/W 08-09... no idea if it's true or not, but it was linked on the men.style.com home page.

Yea, someone posted that in Supershopper. I think it just means they have team up for a few more season on top of SS08. At least that's what I got from it.

RAF SIMONS X EASTPACK

[headcoat]

Will Raf Simons ever open up a boutique in the states? It'd fit in very well in SoHo and do ridiculously well.

[Uinku]

'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"

[onemancult]

a. soho is the wrong place for a raf simons boutique, except if it were so far on

the west side that you practically hit the river.

b. dutch guy, nice try, no thanks.

[goldengloves]

haha..haha...you said seamon.
