            Just wanted to say how much I like this section. There are already so many amazing pieces.

            This might be too time consuming to implement, but as each brand thread gets longer and longer it would be nice if the first post could contain an organized list of the pieces therein (ex: Womenswear / Menswear -> Outerwear etc.).

              not sure if this works but i was thinking if we can have an archives thread for all SZer.. there are some people here making/designing/diy stuff like garments, furnitures, jewelleries etc, if there is a thread like this we can post our best/most satisfied piece with all descriptions and process that involved.

                Not a good idea. The DIY forum is sufficient for that.

                        ^ Are you serious?

                        Half the people who found this site probably searched for Rick.

                              it just struck me that it would have been kinda cool with a comment function for the posts in the garment archives. like for blog posts...

                              but i guess it can't be done in the sz forum format.

                                Ahh Ittalidaa (does this mean something? I have ceramics emblazoned with the mark you use as your nom de net) and GeneYoko (sorry - so long, and I am guilty myself),

                                I wanted to note about the MMM Replica School Girl's Coat -- it *is* indeed simply scaled to an adult size and not altered in any way to make it more "wearable" or more contemporary in its proportions. Although the sleeves are large in proportion to the coat, I haven't found it to be a detriment, though I could see how it might seem daunting to style.

                                Here is how I tend to wear it:



                                I wear it backwards, as a light coat with a Margiela replica tux shirt (Hong Kong waiter's uniform, 1980s), Acne Hex jeans and Tabi boots. That, or some iteration thereof.

                                this might also explain why replica pieces do not carry the stitched-on white label.

                                It means to take control of a memory, as it flashes in a moment of danger."
