      ^if that's direct towards me, i already realized the mistake after posting it. deleting the post will leave a "gap" post, so i'm hoping an admin could help me out.

          Thanks droogist for brining out Chalayan A-gear. I wish that laika would follow suit.

            Am intrigued by/obsessed with droogist's dress form - is she photoshopping the stand away, or is it so optically white that it blends into the backdrop?!

              Very much on both points. Quite exciting to see this.
              Are you afraid of women, Doctor?
              Of course.

                Just a little ps magic, nothing to obsess over (and far preferable to the actual backdrop, believe me).

                I find the 4-picture limit insufficient for some pieces. Any chance it can be raised? I don't get the feeling that people are uploading a bunch of superfluous pics just for the hell of it...

                  I don't mind increasing it to five, for that oddly even (or evenly odd?) number.

                    MBD - the MMM replica overcoat you just posted is incredible. I love the play on uniforms and how it is both two things at once - a Margiela garment and a model of a vintage garment that has so much history. I wonder if they kept the same proportions, or altered it slightly to fit an adult female form/make it more "fashionable"/etc.

                        please note that we don't have time to babysit every single post here, if the entries don't meet the guidelines, they will simply be removed.

                        this includes inadequate information:

                        - photos that are unclear, don't show the full garment or are hosted elsewhere

                        - details that don't include for example the designer name or garment type

                            that's what i get for not reading the rules, one of the great shortcomings iml. in any event the CdG jacket was a knee jerk reaction of WOW, pure pain for pleasure and a favorite piece for sure.

                            ugh, i planned on using this day off to take some pictures of garment groups and discovered my husband took the camera to a car show, just goes to show the best laid plans...

                              One of the good benefits of having the Archives is that it will now give some people the opportunity to see that there are other people than their revered masters doing spectacular work, both it terms of the ideas and the quality of execution....................Chalayan is at the very top of that ladder.

                              If I ever were to wear drag, my shopping budget would be at least 60% his womens clothing

                                droogist, if there ever was a coffin to nail shut, you did it. i admire your eye for beautiful things so much.
