I have a quesition about sizing, what's the different between 44 and 44P?
Anyone knows?

I think it would be nice if you leave the top 2 buttons undone and u put the scarf inside the shirt coming out at the bottom, more subtle and still intersting. Or maybe u can just go around ur neck for a couple of turns until thers only a little piece left of each, maybe 15 cm, and u make a knot, makes some kind of turtleneck/ tight scarf...coould look cool if the tips end up being at the back, and u make the knot at the back..like the cowboysB)

anyway you put it, its a nice shirt u got there

ooo I see. Were they available at the corresponding label's store or elsewhere? So this is pretty much low quality stuff with a designer label tacked unto it? (sorry I'm asking so many questionslol:

It's nice to see it on a "real" person.

I just got this magazine, the price in Japan for this jacket is, 1491000 yen...

Chinor : Your Blood Wound shirt on eBay looks delicious..

 

[Chinor1z]

thanks buddy! I hope it goes to a good home!

 

[faust]

its funny, i bought that jacket with the shortened sleeves and it arrived today with a nice £220 custom tax as i bought it from a seller in the US. I think im gonna reject it and get him to send it back with no value so i wont get stung!! Maybe this time use a private sevice like fedex? Anybody had any experiance or can offer any advice when buying items outside the EU?

Just tell the seller to put a low value and mark it as a gift.

does anyone else have this shirt?
I've had this shirt for a while and never worn it, it's the silk one from last year with the big silk scarf detail. I kinda like the look of it under a a sweater with the details pulled out, just wondering if anyone else had any interesting wear ideas for it or anything to do with the scarf other than tying it in a bow.

thanks

Actually, I think the hippest thing this year would be the tone-on-tone tie, and you can knot your scarf into a tie.

If you are a fan of Yohji or Preen, what I did with a similar white cotton shirt I have is to randomly twist, fold or tie the scarf and secure each twist with a safety pin from inside (or outside if you like it punk) so that it sort of randomly bunches up but stays in place.

Hi all, i've got a pair of dior jeans from the fall winter 05/06 collection size 34 that i purchased for 490.00 at barney's chicago. The slash pockets are not really my smile so I would like to sell them. There is the exact pair on ebay brand new and I apologize for using the pics but my equipment is old and I cant post my own pics. I have worn them 5 times, there is a little wear at

i'm seriously considering to BIN... but i don't know if i can pull off a tank...

uhm.. anyway.. why did you decide to let it go?

Mmmm.

The glitter pants are MINE as soon as I save up a couple hundred more dollars. ;]

They would go good with the gold 6.5's from the last season.
And maybe that tartan button up. Yes?

I do approve clashing colours and textures, but the golden boots with the glitter pants are likely too much for my taste.

Ah, someone beat you to it this morning... that's a record. Posted at 12:45 am, bought at 9:00 am the same day!

Well I've decided to let a lot of my flashier more collectible Dior items go purely due to functionality reasons. When you've only worn something once or never and you've had it for months or a year, then you know you're not going to really integrate it into your wardrobe.

As mentioned before, my money is finite and I want it to go to good use. Having a $650 leather corsage sitting there isn't a good use of money. Same goes for the blood wound tank. First off, it's too large for me. I'd likely take a medium and hell, I've got the execution of it down to a science. I actually wear the red blood wound on black tee that I sewed myself quite often and I have more of a "connection" with that piece since I put so many hours into it. Plus, like you said, the original was a tank and I just feel weird wearing tanks.

So although many of the items that I've sold are gorgeous and will likely be coveted by the buyer, they just don't work for me Better to see them be worn than for me to just glimpse them collecting dust in my closet.

Depending on the quality/creations of the next collection, I could very well be moving on. If we have 3 seasons of mostly boring/unwearable-in-a-professional-environment clothes then that's a sign that it's time to move on.

As my tastes mature, I desire to add more pants to my wardrobe (of which I currently have one pair.. not including suit pants hahaha)... more shirts, less tees, things like that.

I can definitely thank Hedi for teaching me to appreciate quality craftsmanship, the concept of draping and flou, and how to pick clothes that make one look sharper, slimmer, more distinct than the rest. Standing out without being obtrusive about it.

I'm eyeing a hat and a pair of gloves by LMaltieri at Maxfield's... they could be my next semi-big purchase(s). I'm also strongly considering one of the Luster leather jackets (finally! In my size!) but man... $3k! Ouch!

If that´s the one you´ve been looking for in ages (and I remember you named one specific one for at least one year), than go for it if you´ve got the money to spend. Chances are few that you will encounter one anytime soon and it´s absolutely the right moment to get something in for the pieces that you are selling right now. You should reward yourself for cleaning up your closet, and knowing your personal style a bit better now, you are likely to buy less every season, rather than buying loads and selling them after a period of time.

 

[Fade to Black]

Yeah Albert I'd go for the leather jacket (I saw it in the Yay or Nay thread), seems like a once in a lifetime kind of opportunity (well maybe not...but probably once in a long *** time)...if you've been wanting it that long and you have accumulated enough cash from your sales, get it.

"P" stands for "petit", small, literally. Do try to check out Joyce, as some of the outfits, especially those basic items as jackets, shirts and trousers, may also be available in "P" sizes. Some of the toned-down, in terms of the details, items are even available in only "P" sizes.
