hmm maybe something has changed from spring 2012

the fabrics were excellent, insanely high quality, particularly the silks. and the construction was essentially the same as it always has been for ann, the way that many of her mainstays have been construction doesnt seem to vary a huge amount over the years.

its in the south part of antwerp, and outside there are huge trees everywhere, the new collection will arrive in august, so everything is on sale now.

hmm, i dont know what model/fabric the jacket you tried on was, but my experience with ann's clothing has been the opposite. all of the outerwear is finished with fairly heavy topstitching, many pieces used size 69 nylon thread which was weird to me because its kind of an industrial thread.

>>6436510

the exam was two days of drawing. the first day we were instructed to do a drawing in black and white mediums and show technical ability.

After that, we had to create as many pieces in color or using different techniques and media as possible and re interpret the still life in a variety of ways.

we had from 9am to 6pm the first day, and i never stopped drawing for the 9 hours.

the second day we had from 9am to 12am to finish our color drawings, during this time they pulled us from the classrooms for private interviews, where we showed the instructors our work and our essays/resumes.

At noon, we left, and they instructed us to come back at 6PM to hear the students that were accepted.

We came back to the school at 6, and there was a huge crowd of applicants waiting on the bottom floor. The headmistress and the other instructors came down the stairs and said "we will only announce the names of the students who succeeded on the exam, there are too many students so we can not announce all of the failures unfortunately" and then she said the names of all the students accepted. I was lucky enough to be one of them.

thanks dude. the instructor made it very clear that we were expected to produce a large body of work within the timeframe, lots of people left to go eat, but i was so worried never left the room to stop drawing.

>>6436620

yeah, 99% of foreign applicants pass the language course, it is very basic, not a big concern. the examination is the challenge.

>>6436622

yeah i saw tunisia jackets and romanian ones as well. eastern bloc countries have extremely skilled sewers and lower wages than italian sewers so im not really surprised. certain raf tailoring is made in hungary, perfect contruction.

what city do you live?

i personally do not enjoy really tourism kind of trips, when i visit places, i like to find really dope design, clothes, walk around the dirtier parts of the city and drink good beer/booze and see music. so mainly i think berlin would be cool for that, and i have never been to london so those are my top places, however I want to visit milan (because clothes) very much. i suspect i will only have time for berlin and maybe milan before i go but i will see.
