Curiouser and curiouser...I could have sworn that there was a completely different store in its place - I guess that was about 3 months ago now. And you can imagine my surprise, at the time...Well, seeing as you were just there, I suppose the obvious conclusion is that I must be either mistaken, or delusional - glad to hear it.stillhere said:I don't understand?you mean that Onward is/was gone. I passed by St. Germain the day before yesterday and the store is "still" standing. I would not suspect this store to close - big corporation/ nice "Paris" location and the store is one of the only in Paris with a nice high creativity level. .......
(Btw, is the store still called Onward, or have they changed the name to Via Bus Stop?)And thanks for posting those pics, nqth! Very nice.

Oooohhh! You just commited a cardinal sin against Chalayan by not giving the pieces benefit of the dobut on possible complex treatments of the lining, hidden details, etc. Bad boy!
Yes, it is very pricey, I don't know why.softgrey said:
If SOHO Bloomingdale's selection of Hussein Chalayan are boring, it's more likely the problem of the way they buy it rather than that of Hussein Chalyan's design. I went to that store everytime I was in New York, and everytime I was dissappointed. Last time I was there in March, and their selections were kind of like trendier and more expensive version of Bloomingdale in..... Mall of America! The only things I found interesting were some pieces from Ermanno Scervino and Collection Privee which were outrageously expensive. The Viktor&Rolf they bought were like Banana Republic, and Comme des Garcons Shirt were like Gap, it's just unbelievable.

And normally I would but for the same reasons I see alot of reservation about Branquinho Homme,overall it's just basically dull
Haoshcn,we are talking Bloomies though. This is the major pit-stop for most every cheesy Middle American tourist that goes to NY. I think next time you should head to Barney's...they sell Chalayan,non?
