Small questions thread

[dji]

charles I'm a 44 and an XS fit me well.

has anybody tried on this season's double-layered short-sleeve t-shirts from lick owens? wondering how they fit... i'm between a 46 and 48 usually, should i go for a small or a medium (and please account for stretch, and i'd like it to fit sloppily slim [whatever that means])

I would say a medium would work best for you, that's the size I got from this season and it's perfect. They seemed to have fixed the issues from AW07 exploder with it stretching out like crazy.

thnx andrew.

i guess that sets me up for my next "small question".

anybody live in london and want to let me order a rick tee from oki-ni and have it shipped to them? (and then ship it to me, hee?)

[Chant]

yeah it sucks. but have to order from a store so nuthin' to do. which could lead me to another question. does thecorner (and yoox for that matter) ship within EU if you order in another EU-country. Or is everything shipped from US? Thinking of taxes and custom.

Orders from EU are shipped from EU.

I'm between a 48 and a 50 and a size S (in viscose) fits me perfect..
The Rick Owens lottery.. ;)

I just bought the double layer shirt and the ls in XS and they fit me quite tight.
I am a 46 in jackets or coats normally, and always a XS in most knits...

Just got a quick question. Ordering a RO tank, the viscose/silk one but I've heard people saying that the current season generally fits tighter body width wise when it comes to the basic pieces. I'd usually size down to have it fit a little tighter but maybe that's a bad idea now. Anyone got a take on this?

[bestial]

tried the ribbed l/s in M and would say that it fitted a bit tighter then usual. so you might want to go with your normal size.

My a/w 08 one is the same size as my s/s 08 one, although the tag says S on the a/w and L on the s/s.. I'm in between a 48 and a 50.

In general s/s is smaller in sizes than a/w iirc..

[lowrey]

I have a tank in L and its probably just as fitted as an S or XL would be

I need an XL in the tibbed l/s shirts, so they fit quite a bit slimmer and are not as stretchy as the tanks imo.

Yuji Miura

I just bought a pair of black leather boots from Joyce, HK. The label is called Yuji Miura and I guess it's Japanese. I tried to google it, but with no luck. Does anyone know this label?

[JSebbe]

Seeing those Ann D boots on snafu made me more interested in buying them.

How is the sizing, do they fit a bit bigger (in this case, how much) or are they true-to-size?

[Chinorlz]

novice question... how do the first season MA+ boots fit? Measurements that I've seen in the past suggest something like 1 size large? maybe more?

[grapz]

What size should i be looking at if i'm usually a size 2 for all jap brands for LUC?

I'm writing a paper on "conceptual fashion" even though I'm not really sure those are the right words. Essentially I'm focusing on clothing within the canon of fashion in which the concept overtakes their function as clothing or as fashion (sorry, I know fashion isn't exactly well-defined). So far I have collections like Margiela's '94 Barbie collection, Chalayan's debut collection – The Tangent Flows (and Chalayan collections in general), and CDG's '97 Lumps and Bumps.

Does anyone have any collections that I could use? Dates would be nice but aren't totally neccessary. Clothing that isn't part of modern/contemporary fashion would qualify, too.
