Small questions thread

I would try calling the RO NYC store (assuming you're in the US). Please report back as it would be good to know in the future :)

Does anyone know what the usual response time is from The Library?

Sent them a mail last weekend and haven't heard back from them yet.

[lowrey]

yes, give them a call.

Anyone have a good idea on dry cleaning costs for leather? I have the Ann D reverse calf leggings, and after wearing them several times, I noticed a grease spot. I'm pretty sure it's from hand lotion. I dropped them off at a new dry cleaners, but they quoted me $125. Does that seem high? Of course I want them done well, but over $100 seems high to me.... I was expecting $50ish.

Oh - and I'm in the NY area if anyone recommends a good dry cleaners - TIA!

I guess this is the place to ask...

I've been looking at these insanely nice boots:

Does anyone have experience with these? What would a size 2 equate to in American sizing? Thanks.

I have the boots in navy and absolutely love them. Size 2 should be around a 42, I think, although some people find them to run bigger.

Is it heresy to put belt loops on the Linea slim pants I just got? The cut is the nicest I've ever put on, but I always like having a belt, and the waist is a few cm too large.

[Enaml]

heh it seems to be the case. I've been looking for them for a while now, so it was insta-kopped

I'm just curious because belt loops don't really alter the fabric noticeably and can be removed easily. Now pockets... Well that's a whole different story

1) Does Devoa fit small? (e.g 46 = 44)
2) Does ma+ fit short?

Talking about cotton / knit tops.

I don't see a problem with it. Especially since I imagine they would become more functional for you.

If the fabric on the loops doesn't match the original perfectly, just don't wear belly shirts. And if you do feel the need to, I doubt people are going to be closely inspecting the fabrication of your belt loops, anyway.

LUC:ish, aviator is shorter.

i would say tts, if not, slim.

I also posted in the 'international ordering thread' but thought that it may be a good idea to ask here also:
Does anybody know of a Paris proxy? I'm looking to order something, have it delivered in France and then sent to London.
Thanks.

contact christian, sz memeber too.

Thanks all for the help... See "Good Finds" thread, haha.

I sometimes wonder about fakes getting sold on Y!.
Did you ever see some fake LUC or ma+ or am I just overcurious?

Looks fake to me, too
