Mmmm, pretty much every Chalayan collection, lol! In particular might be the two most famous - the aerodynamic collection and the refugee collection.

Yeah I'm so happy all his collections are on his site. Just wondering, though... Do his special pieces ever serve a purpose other than pulling his shows together? I mean, are they ever actually sold?

Questions for New Yorkers: Does Barneys NY have this season Drkshdw black wax jeans? The one that sphoxx was trying to sell last week.

Probably not, but they are in museums! The Met has one of those aerodynamic dresses. It's awesome.

Black pants (N) v Rick v Ann

i've worn out my RO shiny drkshadow jeans, need another pair of black jeans, and probably a good pair of black pants/trousers.

Anyone have any opinion about how the (N) black Jeans compare to Rick's faded drkshadow/Berlin jeans?
Also, considering a pair of (N) trousers with a brighter black stripe running down them. Any opinions of how these compare to less flashy (but similarly cut?) pants by rick and ann?

or any other recs for a staple black pant to be worn frequently?

sry if this seems too large a question....

Northface / Taylor Design

I was at the North Face store at Omotesando Hills in Tokyo several weeks ago. Came across this rather nice down jacket, with a Taylor Design logo inside. The SA told me that Kris van Asche is the guy behind Taylor Design, or something to that effect. I tried googling to find out more but couldn't come up with anything.

Any insights?

I like n(n) better because they dont stretch out as badly as drkshdw. at least they pair I have always becomes baggy in the knees and crotch after one or two wears. the skinny n(n) cut is also quite a bit slimmer.

Yes AB still stocks M.A+
No winter sale has not started (however, I got a call letting me know they are having a special outwear markdown thru saturday 11/22).

And they got their Julius buy...My first time seeing the pieces close up...amazing. The washed, reverse deer leather shirt is phenomenal as are the other leather pieces.
