Liking alot of stuff on the mens side, interesting silhouttes and use of patterns. Id wear alot of it, especially dropped crotch pants and norwegian style knits.

I agree, those purple/blue and orange fair isle-knits are really nice. Wester's AW -08 is without a doubt the most interesting collection thus far on the fashion week.

Some of those sweaters are incredible, anyone know who stocks this in the US or how much sweaters from past lines have gone for?

Oversized sweater from f/w was close to 300 $. Material 40 %acrylic 60 % wool which I think is horrible in something that expensive...

I agree, but on the other hand I really love the fit and design of the blue sweater, and I would definitely go for the matching gloves too

Also, please tell me those mustaches aren't drawn on....

I agree with the call out of the sweater prices, but I must say that I like what I saw. Very wearable items with a nice subtle twist

That's horrible indeed, since acrylic often tends to pill a lot.

Well Raf Simons is known for using tekno fabrics (I AM NOT COMPARING THE TWO), so I don't mind the fact that she uses polumaterials, I would appreciate that she would use high quality material such as cashmere, merino (pure, which she has done some times) and what not, but imagine what the price would be like.

I like this collection, but I have lost any critical sense when it comes to Wester. I just love it so much. I would like to ad that I don't think this is one of her best, but I have yet to see any of it in real life which is difficult when there are so few stockits.
