good point, the proverbial shitty band example says it all.

Re: Carol Christian Poell

Aren't you all now saying anyone could make the designs Poell is doing if they simply chose to?

Re: Carol Christian Poell

hmm I think you might've confused some of the comments about Johan Lindeberg..?

?

it's not than anyone could do what ccp does, it's that anyone could like what ccp does, regardless of how shitty their own work is. sz flavor egalitarianism.

That makes no sense though. Why would they not like it? I say 'would' even though you said 'could' to keep this discussion even a little sane.

Re: Carol Christian Poell

because their own style is very different.you could think thatguys like J. Lindeberg havebad style because they make whatappears to manyas unstylish clothes, but his personal style is perhaps not equivalent with his work. I think that was the point. whether its surprising or not is a different question, I don't think I'd expecthim towear Poell.

Re: Carol Christian Poell

He designs what he's capable of designing (and these days also what sells). Perhaps he sees in CCP shoes something that he'd like to be able to do himself.

To answer my own question on the previous page, the perforated leather gloves are $720 at atelier.

@ the breaks >> lowrey nailed it. you are an idiot. for "why" please see previous page and a half of discussion.

personally I'm done with this shit. we laughed, we cried, now let's all masturbate furiously to some fetishized objects as per usual:

if you look closely, you can spin a creepy little narrative thread . . .

EDIT: in retrospect, I realize the "masturbate furiously" part was maybe poorly paired with the gauzy pregnant tits. oops?

Re: Carol Christian Poell

Just tie up a couple of points here. For your 720 you get a top-shelf kangaroo slaughtered in the prime of its life and its skin shipped to Italy where the champs at Guidi give it the one-two-three before Carol gets out the mini-drill and does the perforations while the munchkins roll out the tanning barrels. When they're done they ship said gloves off to some distant country where a tourist buys them and takes them back to Italy. The carbon footprint on these babies is bigger than Bhopal, which is why I only use them when urinating.
