the clothing in this editorial really got my attention for 11byboris, but the only things I found (online) was the camo + prints stuff only :( would be great if anyone can help me find these, especially the 11 leggings!

shorts + jacket

who made the jacket in the same fabric that traditional samurai belts were woven in? i remember reading the fabric is produced in extremely limited quantities, i think it may be wabi-sabi and by either ma+ or ccp? any information on the fabric would help!

Check m.a+ thread. There was some discussion before.

Wabi-Sabi is actually a japanese aesthetic philosophy, might you be thinking of Notu Jofu? Ramie fabric I think, used for obi belts, and I believe M.A+ has made a jacket out of it

Here we go, quick google search yielded these pictures from Atelier, part of M.A+'s SS10 offerings

raw hem jeans

Just got some acne black ace jeans and they are a bit too long. Would it be foolish to just cut them to desired lentgh and leave the hem raw? thx

[k3mist]

just get it hemmed or roll it up?

[boodude]

Yeah i could, but wannted to bad ass the jeans a bit( plus roll up is so bloody hipster these days)

cut off raw hem looks good in certain situations for sure. just make sure you stitch above the raw hem so it doesn't unravel so much as to damage the jeans.

i actually really like the look of raw hem, no break denim ending right above or at the ankle.
