^i thought those were already the dick dunks with lower tongue; ogs with the semi-swoosh on the sides had a higher ankle *and* tongue? not sure tho, could definitely be wrong x_x

The cropped and tapered cut for trousers that is present in a few collections is something i really can't get behind. The fabrics at Haider look amazing, but the cut of the trousers (and blazers) are off-putting.

On the other part of the world, the same cut done by the likes of CdG and Yohji are perfectly fine to me.

Some of the archived Damir Doma stuff coming up on LN-CC is amazing! Although I am not sure how I feel about items from AW12 that were on sale just coming back at full price.

i like the symmetrical prints trend.

givenchy stuff reminds me of a lot of things that i like the art direction of. giga wing, silk scarves, and blazblue.

Clearly I haven't been paying enough attention, but had no idea that vibskov played in Trentemollers band! 

[bill]

Yeah, he's the drummer and also the set designer! 

 

Recently, he did the artwork for Only God Forgives

 

and has a new book covering his Neck Plus Ultra exhibition at Gammel Strand

interesting article on pricing on the BOF website: http://www.businessoffashion.com/2013/08/fashion-inflation-why-are-the-prices-of-designer-goods-rising-so-fast.html

Number (N)ine shirt slogans are the best

i had tons of respect for vibskov on basis of his clothing alone
discovering that he's a drummer (and a very tight one) is very inspiring.

think there's a market for this?

 

i might need to come out with a line of printed silk scarves.

another interesting read - Li & Fung, looks at the impact of chasing cheap labor.

Posting the missing collections of certain designers is something I've been wanting to do for a while and I've decided, as you can see, to post Dries' collections for now.

 

I've also been wondering if adding a subforum for designer's collections would be something good and not superfluous, as the general/discussion threads, articles and others are just being buried...

 

Some members, months ago, brought up the idea of doing a subforum like SZ did for items archives... Still unsure about this for many reasons, but if you guys want one and will post in it then why not?!

[jackg]

^ yes please! that would be amazing. 

[Desi]

Agreed that sounds dope.  A little hentai forum I used to frequent had a nice archive setup. 

 

This would also keep me from scrolling through 80 links just to find a old collection that doesn't exist anymore style.com/gq

[cloonz]

It's a pain in the ass download full image sets of collections in high resolution. Are there any sites that make it easy if you aren't press/student? Download links in an archive would be great or even just set up so it's easy with an image grabber plugin.

It's all done manually and one by one.

 

edit: this reminded me i have to ask for a catwalking account.

Bill is the man.

 

Do you use an account to mass upload? There's a thread about girl style I pretty much singlehandedly update on styleforum but that's cause I can go in my pics and just select and post a bunch at a time without going into any other sites or whatever, if that's possible here I'd love to contribute...

[Desaturated]

So what's up with robert geller? I haven't seen any collections as of late...

No, I just use postimage.

you could have googled "geller fall 2013", used our archive or our search function. anyway:

Robert Geller F/W 13

Robert Geller S/S 13

Robert Geller F/W 12

Robert Geller S/S 12

Ah sorry, somehow I got ahead of myself thinking he should have dropped another collection already...

[MichaelJJCC]

I'm expecting some hardcore negging for this, but are classic peacoats still rockable?

 

I saw one at goodwill for like 8 bucks so I copped it thinking I could flip it on ebay, But the more I look at it the more I dig it.

 

I just feel like I'd be that menswear lame-o with it on ã€ãƒ»_・?】
