    Also, I hear the sizing is pretty odd.
    I don't think so, but the aesthetic is definitely similar. One of the myths about Panteleev is that he worked with Altieri.

      sizing in my experience is for the most part pretty consistent, except for one piece i have. usually a large fits me pretty well (48), even a little slim, especially with the reversible longsleeve t-shirts (seams were exposed both ways when reversed, just depended what colors/panels i wanted on either side). but i got this one thick jacket in Large, and it's huge on me; i might've taken a small in that one. too bad i don't fit it too well, the fabrics are awesome (had like 8 or 9 samples attached)

        women's Volga Volga boots at Yoox

        Mentioned this on the Yoox Forum...there are a pair of womens boots for sales, new arrivals for $118. Cannot really tell much on details, as the computer I'm on does not have a great video card. Best wishes.

                saw some nice Volga Volga stuff particularly the l'maltieri looking tops. Are they worth 250 euro?
                Did you get and like the larger dick?

                  My experience with VV is it's hard to find and expensive (and at times very expensive)... a 2 tone cotton LS shirt (kind of carpe looking) was listed for $580 USD at Maxfield.

                    250 euro's worth it. some of the multi-tone ones were $625 i remember, and some were $575-ish.

                      there used to be one in japan that i've ordered from, but they stopped selling volga volga a little while back. it was still expensive, even on sale, but i wish i got a lot more back then.

                      that site said volga volga only had 8 stockists, i don't know if that was true or not (maybe just talking about japan?), but i don't believe there's anywhere online to buy it. places that used to carry it - L'Eclaireur Rue Herold & Yasmin Cho, no longer offer it. best bets are: Archive in SF, Maxfield's in LA, The Library in London, Eastern Market in Victoria, KH in Cologne, and check Alan Bilzerian in Boston. try giving these places a call. h.lorenzo said they would carry it later, but i'll check tomorrow. i can vouch for Archive and Maxfield's VolgaVolga from the past. i'm sure Eastern Market has a bunch, but i've never ordered from them. The Library had like 1 pair of pants last time i saw - hopefully they get more.

                          AB doesn't consistently stock VV.

                            has anyone been to Eastern Market in Victoria? I must make a b-line there when i am next down in Melbourne later this year.

                            If so what is the damage like? do they carry cdiem shoes? or just Avantindietro?

                              carpe diem is gone dude, its old school, i dont think theyve got anymore pieces. AvantinDietro is there though, you got like a select few pieces for guys and some footwear for women, the footwear is great!

                              oh and yeah, the volga volga stuff is amazing, youll love it.
