Wow. I love the fabrics you've chosen !

Especially fond of the pants and shirts - all of them.

You did a great job !

Great collection Zamb, I've always loved your bags, now I love your jackets [thumbup]

great work zamb, the new Polis bag looks really cool. clothing looks very nice as well [thumbup]

the rotated seam l/s and the soft J pant look fantastic!

Fantastic work zamb!
Nice to see the inner construction of most of the pieces, that sure looks amazing but also like a lot of work. I'm wondering whether you make all of the ordered pieces yourself or if you've got a manufacturer?

Best of luck to you! I hope the hard work pays off. [smile]

I predict a shitload of J-pants orders.

Great work! Your bags get better and better. The pants and shirts look amazing, especially the DNA pants and the "magic penny" shirts.

I'll send you a PM with some questions about items I am interested in.

It looks great Zam. [thumbup]Well done![thumbup]

Of course it's difficult to give a final verdict until I've seen them on a body and touched the fabrics, but if the reality lives up to the pictures, you've got nothing to worry about, my friend.

No, you can trouble me if you want[smile]
So long as your words are meaningful, I dont mind................

^^^I don't see how this collection in any way acquiesces to the SZ clientele. It all looks very Zamb from the detailing to the fabric choices to the cuts and is exactly what I would expect from him. More interesting than Rag & Bone, not as directional as Gustavo Lins, ideal clothing for a white collar man with blue collar values and dreams of being an aristocrat. I don't know what the fuck that means but I think the line is more suited to Bergdorf or even Jeffrey than Atelier.

Deleuze,

I merely stated my opinion.
I want to know where zam is coming from. Anything wrong with that?
I dont want to get into cyclic originality debate.
Why does he use terms like 'hammered leather and object dyed'?
Everyone is jumping on this bandwagon.
While it seems derivative to me, I am questioning zamb to prove otherwise.
Fashion doesnt revolve around atelier NY's taste._They are a great store with a great outlook no doubt.

Have a lot to do and going out to take care of a few things so I will answer you on my return.

It's called "hammered" leather because the leather was kinda stiff and was "hammered" with a hammer to make it softer.............so there you go......

It"s called object dyed because the piece was dyed after it was made..............as an "object" instead of pre-made raw materials.

All Fashion/ clothing is derivative in one way or another............ anyone who thinks otherwise is either delusional or misguided. One can create a new style of Pocket but its still "just a pocket" so no need to get overly worked up about it.
Some of my work is "original" some "derivative" nothing wrong with that...............just doing what i love and have struggled my entire adult life to continue doing with integrity and purity of soul.

will say more later,

Blessings

I kind of agree with C'est Fini. Although I suppose we might as well prepare to be annihilated for saying this; this forum can sometimes be quite emotional when it comes to critique of well loved members/brands/designers/....

To me, this looks like a tribute to favorite/most prominent pieces/features from ************ crowd of designers.

I guess there will be plenty of orders, if priced right, and on their own, they are nice pieces and I don't doubt Zamb's craftsmanship or patterncutting. But it's not a collection. There is no cohesion, mood or story, nothing that says - yeah, this is ZB; if these pieces would display themselves in a manner of a lookbook, on models, it'd be clear as day.

PS - the bags are really a standout, and capable to stand on their own.
PPS - I trust you'll take this minor critism in good spirit Zamb.
