i like the fit, but the prints are overdone to my taste. Then again im biased as hell

 

[snickerdoodles]

It looks like every other T-shirt out there. I'm not impressed.

 

[Spike413]

That first one is kinda cool....I'd wear it.

 

[nextnewface]

I like the lion t-shirt.

I bet it's a gazillion hundred dollars though and not available in Québec

 

[*sayan]

hello quebec!
montreal aussi?

even with the freezing cold..i miss my city..

 

[marcj]

i love this.... I always see it at Fred Segal...

Was in harvey nicks today and looked through some of their stuff.... not really that impressed

 

[Meg]

didn't know harvey nic's carried them. They've been around for awhile and popular with the LA crowd for the same length of time. I like fun prints but it's no different than any other line out there.

There's a little feature on them in the last issue of Elle....it said they give hand-distressed treatments to cashmere. The particular sweater they had in it was nice enough. The graphics are a bit overrated,imo,and already a distinct feature in the work of Libertine. Is that an L.A. thing,btw? All in all,I'd say it's basically a t'shirt/sweater version of Libertine.

 

[liquid fire]

yea its been in LA for a while..i like some of their stuff but it reminds me of grail a lot heh

 

[softgrey]

i have mixed feelings...
they did denim for the first time this season...
very clean simple japanese denim in a skinnny cut and slight boot cut...
available only in dk grey denim and bone (antiqued w/a hand-painted finish)
and will bring forth a whole denim line for fall 06 at coterie...

I really enjoy the line. Lounge has a great selection.

 

[new_dawn_fades]

SOrry but its played... i hate those polo tshirts with the logo on the inside of the collar.. the worst f*&*%$g trend.. and thhe whole gothic font emblem stuff in gold is so old..theres a label here in sydney that does something similar but in a more large scale and with crappy fabrics..called industrie why by far has generated some of the worst trends... but skinny japanese denim sounds ok but like i said its done and is nothing new...
"designer" streetwear labels annoy me sometimes..

 

[poeticmutiny]

Are they still hot? I'm still totally intrigued by everything they make but has their effect worn off in general? Was no one impressed to begin with?

I thought this one was really creative and daring:

I was reading WWD recently and I saw a shot of a dress from their most recent show and honestly, it was like the hottest thing I ever saw. It doesn't even compare to that dress above.

Anyway, thoughts? Comments?

P.S. I hate their jeans ick.

I loooove the capes for FW 06.07

There is a little piece on them on STYLE.COM for their fall 07 collection.
It's in the (Art) Inspirations section

"Each piece in the collection has subtle details in the form of a stitch, alloy tag, a chiffon-covered pin, or artwork, which reflect a membership to the Societe MG1979. Other members of this society will notice these details and their significance."

any idea what Societe MG 1979 is ???
