you're welcome Chinor1z
yes the coat and parka and jacket can come in fiberglass,
in gunmetal.
it is super photogenic.
it is dangerous rather than uncomfortable.
it splinters around the hem/edge, and fine filaments stick out here and there and shimmer bewitchingly.
every hem may become bloody, if you have tender skin.
invisiseam is not available unless it is specially ordered.
it is what they called "open seam", in terms of jointing the garment parts/patterns with the clear elastic fine nylon thread and making a hairbreadth illusionary gap in the seam.
but this time the point is for describing the outline of each pattern and accentuating the edge of each fabric.
so the gap is widened with a heavy visible thread,
which is called either "chain-seam" or "chain-stitched". the construction too is totally different.
though my english is too awkward to explain this sort of thing well,
I mean the seam line looks a bit like an emergency ladder (yes there is some link between this collection and S/S 07 paranoid).

Oh very interesting! I thought it was the same type of invisiseam, but I've only been provided the showroom photos and even detail shots don't tell you much when we talk about such specific techniques. I know that he's using it for the lovely spiral leg pants (did you see the leather "art piece" version of this he had made? Amazing!).
This may be the year that I custom order a gray suit done in invisiseam!
Thanks for the extra information Runner. I didn't know the coat was actually fiberglass (I guess glass fibers would equate fiberglass ) but that makes a lot more sense... sounds like it's another piece that is also more of an art piece than something wearable.
So far, it is an interesting collection though!
