    That all seems accurate to me. In fact, I'm currently wearing a Relaxed Jersey Piece™.
    Suede is too Gucci.

      to be somewhat fair to mr porter, i feel their original target demographic is more into cavalli or mmm than rick or the like.

      it's always great reading, though; funny counterpoint to the sites with apt synopses

        Yeh to be fair for them, i mean the description is simply selling a translatable brand value to a clientele whom would normally be buying a more traditional luxury product.

            Yeah but their editorials reach levels of cuntness previously unknown to man. I know I just can't purchase from the site due to how pathetic I perceive them to be.

              That Mr Porter spiel is alot easier on the eyes than "this blind old man, descendant of the carpe diem ancient revered tailoring tree buried his donkey scrotum skins under the ground for 10 years before constructing them using bad glue and artisanal avant garde clown shoe shapes.

                Can you kindly point me to this wonderful text? Honestly the carpe diem peeps can't be accused of having done too much communication. Magazine articles may have done so but even websites are usually relatively direct.

                And NOTHING can beat one of these "bring of pop of colour to your outfit with this amazing Balenciaga purple shirt, timeless classics with a twist will impress her on the first date." school of bullshit.

                  That sounds like something straight off of Sruli Recht. Haha

                                As ever, London's biannual men's fashion week was a riot of colour, texture and imagination. Here are some of the more experimental outfits on display
