/fa/ - Fashion

Oh thank you god thank you thank you thank you! Please, don't ruin this one, please! ;________;
It is 2 AM and I am going to sleep with hope this will end up to good, when I wake up and check thread watcher.
Thank you, I wish I could contribute ;____;

I really like Craig Green and Tim Coppens (if you can still file them under "new designers"). Their shit is more expensive than some established designers,tho.

>>8086078
yes hello craig green friend

have u seen the shoes he has on oki-ni (collab w/ someone or other) i think they suck

i think his aw13 is a lot stronger than his most recent but i might've just been blown away by the masks. apparently all the stained-glass stuff for aw14 is fucking hand painted lmao

>>8086082
Post black version please.

Also about this runway, I'm not really feeling it.
I can't imagine many people buying this stuff. I know it /will/ sell and he'll be fine financially, but I'd prefer some more Rick stuff that's distinctively Rick but at the same time actually wearable.

>>8086126
>Post black version please.
y
do you not have low res pics of this runway show at the tip of your fingers
are you tinfoil samefagging to create a sense of porpoise

>>8086126
shure

>distinctively Rick
i think moody (both mens and womens) fits pretty well into the rick narrative. there's a lot of continuity (head coverings, the wider legs he's been doing w/ the shorts recently, onesies were in vicious too etc etc)

i think mens moody is actually pretty wearable... compared to the womens it's jeans and a t shirt tbh
i'm eagerly awaiting street style shots of kasavin wearing the waders or the onesies irl

>>8086126
>but I'd prefer some more Rick stuff that's distinctively Rick but at the same time actually wearable.

...

You get that every year with the perennianals and with drkshdw. Not to mention the new stuff that wasn't shown on the stage.

>>8086145
w2c that sense i'm seeking

>>8086126

I really don't know how it's not wearable. The New Drape pieces are easy and probably suit a ton of bodies and styles.

>>8086147
Those shoes are alright I guess.
Honestly I'd probably only cop the shoes and maybe a shirt from Moody, his Drkshdw shoes are still my favourite though.

Need to see some off-foot shots of these shoes though. Rick releases new shoes for Drkshdw right?

>>8086092
I actually think SS14 is his strongest so far. The AW14/15 looks to London Fashion Week-ish for my taste. I also quite like Sacai and Phenomenon, who both got a lot of new stockists over the past few months, but the mark-up for japaneses brands is retarded.

>>8086163
dude i was excited when u revealed that the onesies are called bodybags

when u said they'd be in leather and knit what leather and knit are we talkin

praying 4 that goat/wool blend

>>8086180

I assume at least in calf, given that they need to still be supple enough to move. I didn't check all the fabrics because I had no serious interest in them, but they're for sure be offered in a heavy jersey as well as a fleece knit. I would assume there will be heavier wool-blends, too.

>>8086190
i do like ss14 too, but i think he's kind of exhausted his 'consumed by luggage' concept now

in my eyes he still hasn't beaten his graduate collection

>>8086195
>no serious interest
⨀_⨀
cashmere would be p fab too fingers crossed for sub-£5000 price point

>>8086216
well, I'm thinking more about what I'd wanna wear and ss14 definitely has the most pieces I'd buy. I saw a fit with the blue pants somewhere recently and they looked great.

>>8086256
yeah i'm definitely on board w/ these fatass 3/4 length shorts

i think i saw some of his stuff on other shop when they still had it in like mid last year and it was literally the most boring buy you'll ever see but still really expensive so i hope cooler stuff will get stocked this time around

brit designer struggle

>>8086076
I don't think these will ever happen, not for a while. Not like /fa/ was always a hotspot for this but when it's pretty much tin running the show it's done. Everything he comes up with is the most disposable noncontributory horseshit, 1/3 of it being in tumblrspeak. Poet mightve been an overdramatic old fuck. Twerk mightve been 9/10 tumblrspeak and a cunt. Timber mightve been a shitty more predictable clone of twerk but goddammit they were better than this.

>>8086275
idk dude do we need to derail

v happy to discuss whatever issues u take if you want to pm me on sufu or tumblr or w/e but let's not shit this up any more than necessary

>>8086294
lol ur such an attention whore always trying to direct things to be based on u

that post had nothing to do with you

>>8086270
http://www.other-shop.com/brands/men/craig-green.html

that's the buy I want to see from stores. It's not big, but at least it has some key pieces and not just run of the mill shit.

>>8086308
yeah i guess it's pretty unreasonable to expect shops to actually buy tarpaulin jackets from a relatively unknown designer while lncc are still struggling to sell deep discount plinth stuff

>>8086331
>store is by appointment only
>surprised when no one buys their shit

Damn it. I'm starting to regret not ordering those Fetish Waders now.

>>8086358
YOU BLEW IT

how much are they?

So is this just a Rick thread?
Just an observation.

What other designers would you say are 'on par' with Rick?

>>8086398
no dude post and chat about whomever you like

>>8086404
BBS always interested me with AW 12/13, seems like he steered away from this kind of stuff though which is a shame.

Loved the silhouette, textures and everything going on in these pieces. Shoes here are nice.

>>8086391

Retails for, like, $1250?

>>8086398

"On par" in terms of what? Reputation? Quality? Prestige?

As far as people who say fuck it and do whatever they want, I think it's pretty hard to match Alaïa.

>>8086414
i don't count myself as a bbs fan but i like the treatment of that jacket

>>8086413
woah that's surprisingly good

>>8086414
Not sure why but BBS doesn't seem like an "open" company to me, it doesn't seem welcoming in terms of shopping and such.
The price is a bit much, bit more expensive than Rick I think but this stuff is great for inspo.

Does KokonToZai count as runway? I know their collections are more streetwear oriented. I never see it discussed here, but I think their shit is kind of beautiful, if a bit heavy on the practice of cultural appropriation (e.g. mercilessly sampling middle eastern / north african culture for visual motifs).

>>8087779
This is exactly the same formula as every other Japanese text/religious symbols/ occult black on white brand and there's no real creative design

>>8087779
yeah they have runway

i don't really like them as a brand, but the better part of their work just gets so passed over because hypebeasts buy those horrible shorts with integrated tights with the whole black on white russian rune print post-internet memebrand kind of consumes and obfuscates the actual majority of their output which is less like that

>>8087952
similar thing w/ givenchy's aw14

his prints were too abstract and indistinct and generic for anyone to accurately indentify them as givenchy when not seen in the context of this show and therefore nobody will buy them (within the stereotypical hypebeast criterion obviously im sure there are lots of old ladies and asian ppl that are v dedicated)

anyway

>>8086022
looks like a cancer patient fell into a lost and found bin

I really don't wear anything anymore that shows on a runway, I guess it's because it's all smaller artisanal brands, but whatever

Umit!

Actually you know what, I think I'll just post Yohji

tinfoil: u r a qt :0

>>8088014

>>8088037

>>8088038

>>8088032
It's probably "linear applique" shirt of some kind, try posting in the Yohji thread on styleforum, just reference the # of the look, but if you just want to buy it
http://man.totokaelo.com/yohji-yamamoto/linear-applique-shirt/whiteblack/KLE9C5

>>8088042
doesnt matter

>>8088044

>>8088044
thx friend xx

>>8088045
they aren't attractive

>>8088056
It's no problem, I kind of hate Totokaelo though, what a rubbish store

>>8088056
doesnt matter

>>8086036
Is islamcore /fa/ yet?

>>8088060
What do you think Thamanyah is?

>>8088059
i've never been / used it before

why's it bad? i quite like the website tbh

>>8088060

yes

been a long time too.

>>8088062
It's like Mr. Porter if it had a physical location
Obviously based around being as profitable as possible, quite safe buys, rather well-rounded accounts but often buys quite a limited range of the least personable items
The store just lacks identity to me, it's obviously playing it safe, but it's boring. Economically feasible, yeah, but dead boring

>>8088066
mr porter is pretty guilty of that too but i forgive them because i like their styling

i'm rly disappointed w/ a bunch of the big stores and their buys this ss actually

>>8088073

>>8088080

>>8088073
Retail's pretty bad right now
A lot of stores dropped their Yohji account for example
I wish Atelier was still open :(
A lot of the stores I like & respect... I would never buy anything from
Then again, I never buy retail, thank god for second-hand markets

>>8088082

>>8088085
Seeing celebs on the YY runway is always great, back to AW91
Yung McQueen looking fresh

>>8088090

>>8088108

>>8088114
You know, you like the generals so much, you should just make a designer/ general discussion thread, minimal emphasis on the pictures and more on the dialogue and ideas brought up
Would be nice to see

>>8088103
sitting in the dark afraid

>>8088139

>>8088139
>>8088099
>>8088103
man that was really weird

I was wandering around all night after using morphine + DMT thinking I had lost my house key

I distinctly remember leaving without my key

I tried to sleep in the park and conserve my phone's battery life since 1 AM

at 6 AM it lightened up a little outside, so I started to walk in the city and then suddenly I felt something in my bomber jacket pocket

it was my house key

>>8088522
you are ridiculous

>>8087974

That's very pretty, the biomimicry aspect of the design is nice.

dont have many but ill post what i can find!

>>8089670
takahiro's last N(N) collection was probably one of my favorites. so wild looking.

>>8089676

>>8089846
More webm's please.
I'd make my own but I'm lazy and idk how.

>>8089846
thats loveeely jee
shame about the blue streak but eh aesthetically fooking gold

>>8089849
Do you have any requests? specific shows or something? I just have a few random ones from when I was just testing it out

>>8089857

I'll make some more from this Yohji show

>>8089857
that's such a weird way to present. i guess that's what he's going for though

>>8089979

>>8089949

>>8085998
everynight when i cant sleep i watch SLP runways to have sweet dreams

>>8089869
whats with the running chap?

>>8090050
what an ugly video setup though

>>8090076
A pretty cool show -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psTCDphDjoQ

>>8090133
yeah but the important thing is the clothes, and the music is bretty gud IMO

>one week i´ve been listening to Liars and Sam Flax all day

>>8090133
all of the fits look better in the pics, even the some sort of mesh jacket looked dope in his pic but in the runway it looks kind of cheap

>>8090143
>>8090133
posted the wrong one, this is what I meant by the ugly video

>>8090165
do you mean the Srulli video? I don't own any of his items so can't really say much about what they are actually like, but I've heard nothing but good things.

>>8090178
SLP f/w 2014 collection, i have to admitt that the video setting is rather confusing but you can watch multiple fits at the same time

i liked more the 2013 collection


yeahh, theres some hype about Sruli, i like the cuts and sillhuettes tho
