we all know that unknown would have bought an oversized pair from yoox and paired them with a gucci pullover and prada sandals.

hating on 19/20 pieces is admirable, but decidedly pessimistic.

hate isnt an emotion i normally associate with a piece of material

however , a simple observation that the majority leaves me unmoved

save a few bits of brilliance

and 19/20 is good odds judging a few other recent collections

maybe its melbourne provinciality

but mainly older (bulkier) women buy luc here

and pip, I'm with you on the michelin man knit and the jeans. but I've felt the same way about all the other LUC pants, and for the same reasons, so just chalk it up to a matter of taste. the drop crotch / dump pants thing in general is kind of lost on me (with a few notable exceptions...)

Re: Label Under Construction

it's possible. can you post any example pics?

i haven't seen them in person yet so i can't say what's special about them. the main reason why they're $1k is because of the euro being so strong while the dollar is so weak. i'm particularly enamored with them because of the cut and fit. it's exactly what i what in a pair of jeans.

i thought they would be around $750 to $800 since the heavy cotton "overlock" pants were $700.

Were is the operative word here. If those same pants were reissued this season you better bet that they will be $1k as well. Just look at the Rick twist tee pricing from season to season.

In this age of overinflated prices, it doesn't surprise me in the least that these pants are $1k. If anything, I was expecting even higher :(

Re: Label Under Construction



Dudes, the pockets are way to big and go down too low anyway. There are so many cool jeans around made by company who actually know denim I hardly see the point.

Do you have pics of the LUC jeans?

[/quote]

love these jeans, but i might as well get the invisible seam pants for cheaper. btw, the destroyed knit scarf is amazing. $650 for it though. the infinity scarf was also dope, however that was around $890 or something.

[/quote]

not feeling these at all...

and paired with the knit the overall appeal is further diminished

maybe its the wide assed model

and the michelin man knit combo....

will hold my tongue on those shoes , but remember

we are nothing , if not critical

Re: Label Under Construction

Does anyone know how much the wool poncho is going for at A?

[Johnny]

Re: Label Under Construction

Thanks so much... these prices just keep getting higher. But i think I will splurge for that poncho. It's really a statement piece and lovely. Even though I probably won't wear it but a few times this Fall. I wish I lived in NJ or somewhere so I could get out of paying tax.

You want to buy a poncho for $2k, but don't want to pay 4.4% in taxes?
