How does Boris stack his pants as per the pic below? would it not fall eventually/with movement?

Yes I'm 99% sure he pinrolled them. Not only him but the rest of the BBS crew started pinrolling their pants too I realized that through a few streetsnaps at PFW

Can anyone provide any feedback on The Viridi-anne tees versus Lumen Et Umbra tees in terms of fit, quality, and price-point?

[magic]

I would say both are well made and good quality. Not sure where LeU were produce now but the tees I own couple of years back was made in italy. Both fit slim.

Knowing nothing of them, gotta say it looks like Kuboraum had a child with Chronicles of Never (in a mostly good way... except that Genius Child stuff. Ew.) Thanks for throwing a new brand of sunglasses onto the radar... hope someone has handled them. It is a bit weird that they don't even mention the materials used (e.g. cotton acetate).

Apparently the owner (designer?) used to work for Quiksilver.

Has anybody tried soaking CCP cord-ptc pants ? I know it says dry cleaning only but I wonder how the taped seam would react to a soak ? If someone tried this I'm interested. Thanks

What type of cotton does Rick owens use for his Drkshdw / Mainline T-shirts?

typically G or R for t-shirts & tanks, or F for jumpers & hoodies.

G is the thinnest, somewhat gauzy cotton, R is the regular medium weight t-shirt cotton [my personal favourite for DRKSHDW t's & tanks], and F is the proper "sweatshirt" material used mainly for jumpers, hoodies, shorts, & pants.

edit: there was no B fabric offered for SS16 orders, nor have i ever seen or handled any B fabrics myself

What type of cotton does Rick owens use for his Drkshdw / Mainline T-shirts?

drkshdw:

B - thin, see-through cotton.
G - medium weight cotton, light shade of black.
R - a bit heavier than G, black is a lot darker. my personal fav.
