        This collection seems really refreshing to me. Love the look of that leather jacket and shorts.

          I must say I rather like this. The second look is my favorite but there's a lot of other nice coats and the dark plaid is cool, especially under that loose knit long sweater. Half of it feels like winter though, no?

            I like the checked shirts too. The presentation is much less kitsch than her recent mens' shows. It's quite Stephan Schneider-like in some respects.... this shirt for example:

                Very nice. VB is quickly becoming a new favorite of mine.

                  I like the simple casual look, but some of it seems a bit too simple, or expected. This opinion really hinges on the quality of the manufacture, is it very good? I've never touched/seen VB in person.

                    macuser, it is actually AMAZING. It blows the rest of the Belgians out of the water, and that's saying a lot. The finishing of the seams, the construction of the details...I go into raptures just thinking about it. [U]



                    Veronique's pieces are really worth the investment, because you will have and wear them for a minimum of 10 years.

                      Awesome to hear that, you never know with the more subdued stuff, if that makes sense... There are a bunch of things on LVR that I'm looking at, so I am pretty tempted after your recommendation. I treat my clothes really well, so it's nice to be rewarded with long-lasting goods. Thanks.

                        Kind of disappointed with this really, all my vb from collections past are much better.

                          You're welcome. The stuff on lvr is really good, looking forward to seeing any purchases! One thing I meant to add is that Faust has mentioned having fit issues with VB menswear before. I'm not sure what these are, but you may want to get a little extra info on measurements, etc. before ordering. [51]
