Lad Musician A/W 2007-08 "Cocksucker Blues"

[ruach]

The new Lad Musician collection was finally posted on the official website. The title is "Cocksucker Blues," named after the Rolling stones song, and styled very accordingly to the Rolling Stones.

Photos, video, some individual pieces to be made available at the flagship stores tomorrow.

I was surprised to see, after several seasons of such simplicity, Lad Musician doing a collection this wild. I think a lot of it does a really good job of over-the-top 70s rock and roll.

also paisley suits.

My favourite look from it is probably one of the most simple...

[notetoself]

Pretty strong collection, love alot of the individual pieces, especially the jackets.

I dunno who's gonna wear some of the new t-shirts though....pretty lewd to say the least.

[sinnah]

yeah I agree.. the t shirts are very lewd...especially this one... http://www.ladmusician.com/img_item/2207-810_32.jpg... I dont even know wtf to say to that one...

Gamma Player in Chicago is the only store in the US carrying their stuff. They are about a season behind and don't do mail order, though.

This is awesome. I want a couple of the belts. Anyone still doing Japan proxy?

i like the collection as a whole, all the looks seem to vibe together although nothing really seems that original to me. I probably would pick a few pieces up if I had easy access to it and the prices were reasonable. However I don't think that's the case in the U.S. so I'm okay with that.

[the breaks]

Disappointing. Almost looks like it could be H&M to me...

[wEstSidE]

crillz if u get one, then you rule.

[joey_formal]

so many strong pieces.

[kronik]

I love the tee designs (though I don't have the cajones to rock most of them) and the belts..

Looking to pick a white one up myself.

[todesengel]

I want to be this guy

This is a great collection. I really like how he combined the influences of the 60-70s while still keeping it very "Lad", i.e. the cuts of the jackets are still short and and distinct to last spring's silhouette and the majority of the colors are off-pastels (which is Lad's forte) w/ a mix of primary reds and blues for good measure. But those lizard/snake-skin jackets are amazing. I think a lot of the looks look over the top styled in the show but would look great un-styled / less flamboyant. It's refreshing to see Kuroda-san moving away from the Dior-homme ish aesthetic.

LM wins.....

[joey_formal]

the second jacket that todesengel posted the m65 style is fucking amazing, that cut and that perfect

[__CB__]

it all looks very wearable (except for the tees) - love that last look in particular.

[Caps Lock]

Liking it, especially the whole 60-70s look that they are trying to achieve.

[mr fluffernutter]

I reealllllly don't like this at all. The last collection was a million* times better. I guess I was just hoping for more minimalism... or something.

I like a couple of the tees and jackets. And I'm sure the pieces are much nicer seperately though.

To me this looks like something that one of those eurotrash designer labels that looovvvveeee irony could have made.

*exaggeration

[covetboy]

for the most part, it's an homage to mick jagger & his concubine(s) but the leather pieces are scorchin!!!! particularly the lamb vest = fire

[homi29]

the second jacket that todesengel posted the m65 style is fucking amazing, that cut and that perfect

i agree, cut and detailing look quite amazing

affording it is another matter

[marquischacha]

I want that last leather jacket they showed! Going to have to get my friend to hook me up when he goes to Japan at the end of the year.
