Re: Carol Christian Poell

i thought so diego, you were after the gray white?

Re: Carol Christian Poell



Yes and I gave them the fucking code for the gray white, I'm fucking pissed to tell you the truth, they just used the ss08 scar stitched leather!!

I'm very dissapointed and don't know what to do.

Re: Carol Christian Poell



i'm sorry you had to take the fall bro. frankly, i'll never be able to pull the trigger on ccp special order leather, with the fabrics pieces maybe, but the leather, now with yours and alberts as evidence, feels contigent on season and supply. its a really surprising mistake by a company with so much attention to detail and costumer satisfaction.

Re: Carol Christian Poell



Exactly, I can't believe this happened, if only they told me that they were going to use the ss08 leather. What I'll do is pay for the fucking thing and send it back and tell them to do something with it, do you think they'll be able to dye it gray white now? my stomach hurts.

edit- If someone owns the gray white, please help me with a pic of the color so I can remind Sergio what it looks like? thank you.

Aww man, that really blows Diego. Don't know if they can just overdye it to grey, might have to strip the whole creamy/yellow out of it (is that possible?).

PM'ing you pics of the grey-white so they can sort out this whole mess.

Re: Carol Christian Poell

worst comes to worst you can dye it black and have a black overlock.

Re: Carol Christian Poell



be careful about code. the code doesn't necessarily represent the same tone if the season is different. for example, the warm cream white for S/S 08 has the same code as the icy white for S/S 07 which had faint blueish hue in it, if I remember rightly (at least it does in the swatch).

also the model in the S/S 08 lookbook was wearing the S/S 07 white boots since they had not prepared any new footwear at that point. anyway you cannot be too specific unless you buy what you are seeing on the spot.

Re: Carol Christian Poell



Diego... I am not sure what yo mean using the s/s07 leather... This white leather jacket that you gotor custom made, is it that you just got it like within a week or two??? I was just at Eastern Market.. and I saw the same jacket in the same color and that metallic stain and they told me they just got it from the last shipment and it was a few days ago.. exact same one.. it was very white though with the metallic stain.. Honestly it was too white for my liking.. I tried on the 48 and it was too small for me... CCP sizing is all over the map ... there were two styles of the suits and I could fit both into size 50 and 52... although 50 would be a little bit problematic to let loose...

Some interesting stuff at Easter Market and I am sure you guys have seen the photo already.. I was at Eastern Market and there was this aussie guy who was trying on that nylon raincoat or something.. the clear coat on the PDF file.. it honestly did not look flattering.. but who has ever made raincoat flattering right?

I didn't try much of the stuff they got I just did a quick browse (shortest time ever 30 minute only) and left, the aussie guy was literally trying on and buying the whole damn Eastern market buy.. he picked up the rain coat, two pairs of boots just the time I was there.. '

Eastern Market has the perforated short too.. looks HOT.. they still have the overlock jeansand overlock shorts... which was from last season collection (the one that the atelier did a photo of it stand up on its own)... and they still have the long ankle boots from last season.. I guess CCP is not doing well as people are saying they do???

Also.. may be this is just the rumour, but I heard that Atelier is dropping CCP??? I thought they were doing well with CCP? or is the stuff really NOT selling?

Re: Carol Christian Poell

Thanks, Ionn, from your description I'm assuming I was one of those 'Aussie' guys at Eastern Market yesterday. When I see the Poell I like, I buy it, I don't just talk about it. I flew in yesterday morning and was out by afternoon.
