interesting, some decent picks in there, lots of sufu friendly stuff

[kunk75]

want viridi-anne jacket and geller bag

[Dead_Wizard]

A ton of vintage ski influence, along with classic suiting. Guessing Mad Men had a major hand in that.

Really digging a lot of it.

[broneck]

generally, things on the internet with "style" in the title are notably lacking in said adjective (noun?).

nice to see this breaks the mould (and wallet)

[jufros]

[jimmyc]

I almost chocked on my enchilada when i saw that.

How much do the retail in Japan? Half as much?

[Guest Phrost]

i liked the chunky geller cardigan and margiela peacoat. opening ceremony boots looked nice as well. did anyone see that navy baby cashmere loro piana pea coat? 8500?!

[Hella Hyphy]

need need need this in my life

[lucky_cloud]

oak shit always fits weird.

i like some of this stuff (ervell winter jeans!), but most of it is clearly oriented to someone with a completely different income and approach to dressing than me.

disappointed that richard chai is so expensive.

[artificialsky]

How much do the retail in Japan? Half as much?

Yes.

Standard formula for brands such as Viridi-Anne, Julius, WJK, etc. when sold by boutiques in America is: Convert Japanese retail price to dollars then multiply by two.

Don't really understand it myself, because the people who most likely into said brands are also the most likely to know about the Japanese proxies who can get you these goods for $1000 less.

[the breaks]

Every man needs a corduroy suit.

[djrajio]

Every gay man needs a corduroy suit.

Like half the "American work wear/casual wear" sold by these bullshit labels.

[cjbreed]

agreed. i thought there were a lot of cool pieces from some very cool boutiques,

but i think i'll skip those colored, studded collar tips...

[robin]

Gross CDG rip off.

The panel "fun" shirts have actually been around for longer than CdG. WASP types having been rocking them on their yachts and summer homes for years.

those Bess boots are hilarious, EVERYTHING at bess is studded. they just go to thrift stores and bedazzle everything in studs.

you want that stuff i can pick up in store for cheap

[Curious_George]

Really like the EGxLevi's barn jacket. Too bad it's exclusive to probably just the NYC Bloomingdales (don't think I've ever seen EG at my local one).

[darkanimal]

Bess is punk highway robbery!
