      Nice argumentation DNHT!

      As for me, some new and not-so-new buying:

      I'm back from Berlin with this pair of BBS vynil treated P4 that I've been loving for so long: this is the black AW15 version. Also tried the SS16 version in grey, but -you know- black is the new black ;)
      I love the shape and the treatment: still wondering why P14 are so hard-to-find... Fabric is stretchy, quite "thin" compared to heavy cotton used in other pants.


      Then, this 2 Lumen et Umbra t-shirt that pairs perfectly with coated/treated/vynil pants (like Memphis or the aforementioned P14).
      I really love this printed tees.



      Last, BBS leather vest + cardigan that I got some times ago: I still can't help loving the olive/military green of last summer collection.

        ^Looks great. I would particularly be interested in how the styling works out on the last piece. And even more generally speaking, there are so many good pieces in this thread that don't ever make it to WAYWT.

          Thanks Dudley: I think the BBS leather works well in both ways, with "lining" or without (for a more rugged look).

          My main "problem" with WAYWT is that I save my best look for goin' out at night, so -in the dark- my phone's pics will be horrendous...
          Also, my wife hates to shoot photos and my friend will call me crazy if I'd ask them

            NICE! I have the same pair from FW15 and I recently picked up the black SS16 version from darklands. I find these to be better fitting and more comfortable than the P13. Also I noticed you wrote P14 I think you meant P4 because the P14 have a hand stitch detail on the side and around the crotch area.

              Yes, I remember your post about your FW P4 (not P14, sorry but I keep confusing them...): been looking for this since then
              I prefer P4 on P13, too. Probably because the P4 fitting (drop crotch, slim calves) works better than P13 on me: makes me slimmer, since it hides my "big" thighs.
              Also tried the black SS16 P4 that you bought: really nice!

                I have not had a holy grail in a long time before this came along. Been lusting over it for almost a year and finally scored yesterday at the CDG market market sale.

                noir by kei ninomiya duffle coat.
                metal ring binding (by hand) instead of thread on all seams.

                  Damn: nice!

                  I think many of us would see a fit pic, if possible...

                      Out of curiosity how does it sound when moving? Can you hear the metal pieces or no?

                        You bad boy, you. Was about to ask in the other thread what piece you picked up. Hopefully all of the Noir pieces get picked up so that we can see them out in the world.

                          I have the dress version and it does not come with sound effects just visual.

                                Following the brief exchange above about GBS, I was in Hostem yesterday and thought I would try on the 'Gainsbourg' jacket and the matching high-waisted trousers - thinking that I might buy one of them. It was one of those rare times when you put something on and you're just humming with how good it is. So they both came home with me...

                                By the way, the GBS womenswear that Hostem has is beautiful: some of the fabrics Geoffrey has used are like nothing I've seen before.
