Small questions thread

You won't find much at Ennu. Why not hop on the train and go you-know-where?

He could also take a shorter train to Rotterdam :) There is a shop called Prague that stocks RO/Drkshdw, Ann, Damir Doma, Raf mainline. Cool owner too.

Thanks for the tip, will look into that.

Not really necessary to take any train to visit the Ann D store in Antwerpen, since they take phone and E-mail orders and ship worlwide.

How much should I expect to pay for the Dior chain belt (90CM)?

Thanks! :)

The chainmail? It used to go for around a grand, I'm assuming it's still close to that.

Anyone know when Louis Boston's sale will start, or did I already miss it?

LB is usually the last place to put stuff on sale (as there markdown starts at 50% off and then 60%). I have not noticed the sale signs in the windows and I do work a block away from the store...in the past they have waited till after New Year to accommodate the majority of their cliente. If you are in the Boston area, the best thing to do is start picking up a copy of the Globe. LB usually places an add a few days before sale begins.

For those that have not experience the LB sale, it's a hoot. Well heeled boston blue bloods shoving and elbowing for discount fashion is hysterical. LB's selection for mens (not suiting) has been blah lately (they once had Helmut Lang and Jil Sander store-in-stores). Now it's really all about Dries (the best selection I have seen anywhere, they buy everything: suits, knitwear, accessories, leather, etc), Marni and Neil Barrett with a new focus on American designers (Tim Hamilton, Hoorsenbuhs, Rag & Bone, etc).

That's what I thought. Oh well!

What about RO ? that is not sale for T shirt?

[Piffen]

Maybe tall woman I'm not sure

Ive got an overlocked CCP shirt but one of the stitches seems to have come apart or maybe was missing from the start at the armhole area.

The gap is a few cm and I am anal enough to want this fixed --> is any reasonable tailor equipped to do this?

Also, I appreciate the aesthetic qualities of the overlock but asides from this, does it have outstanding functional attributes? I've noticed that the stitches around the area area as strong as ever.

Thanks in advance.

I will definitely have to check out the Louis sale. I'm in Boston, so it's easy enough to stop by periodically. They do have a very good Dries Van Noten selection. What I've got my eye on though are their henry beguelin man bags. I'm way into them, but would rather not fork over the $1,500 they're charging. Plus I'm going to some cash on a CCP overcoat at Alan Bilzarian, so funds will be low.

Ended up ordering what I wanted from a store in the UK. Norway is a pain in the arse when in comes to having stuff shipped from abroad, seeing as we get hit with 24% VAT on anything worth more than 28 usd

Luckily I have a UK address I can have stuff shipped to though

Anyway, thanks for all the suggestions.

Awsome. I picked up a Beguelin belt last year...I don't think the bags go on sale (at least they didn't the last few sales).

You should video tape this. I am not crazy about HB designs, but the quality of the leather blows a lot of brands out of water.
