Carol Christian Poell SS2008 "Off Scene"

[cuddly]

how do you put this thing on, pull the rubber band down first?

I own this rubberband boot and the quality and fit seems fine, no problems at all.

[AKA*NYC]

this black poly lined coat is possibly the ballingest piece in the collection and oddly enough i don't think a single retailer picked it up.

where'd you find the size 6?

soultek, the cd was some sort of packaged good that eastern market was selling, which has that video on the cd.

aka, i know a store that picked it up.

I got these from DHC, they're a size 7, apparently they run small that season.

Cuddly: The boots slip right on, no need to touch the rubberband at all!

goddamn.... if that coat (and it's perf'd kangaroo leather counterpart) wasn't a significant portion of the cost of a replica Shelby Cobra, I'd consider saving up for it.

Thanks for the pictures, Chant. Nice to see some colour, even though yellow is not exactly the easiest to pull off. Then again, Poell is not really about things 'easiest'. I love it.

?????

i think theyve got cd's they should, cause ive got one and it says some like 12/42 on it

I love the white for some reason the most. It's so sickly looking and give the sense of fragility and otherness that really works with the somber model and the decrepit space.

[andrewislasorad]

I agree, the sterile nature of the all white outfit balanced with Poell's grotesque highly processed leathers and linens

[orphée]

I do like the combination of white and off-white, and the photo of the jacket where one can see the sleeves opening from the back.

I have the video saved in .mpeg format but it's really a huge file since it's a direct rip and not the .flv file - I can put it online someday if the one one his website / youtube every goes down because it's too unwieldy to do so otherwise.

[Faust]

The creator of the video contacted me, saying that he wants all content in this thread removed. So, I will oblige and remove it tomorrow. I wonder though, if the entire forum would stop buying CCP for a year or two, maybe he would get off his high horse? It never ceases to amaze me how these creators whose work we value are disdainful to those very people on whom their ability to create depends.

this^ almost belongs in WTF...

The funny thing is, I'd be more than happy to credit the guy and give him potential exposure.
