Re: Recent Purchases

cas, what do the trousers look like? are those the $400 ones or the ones that are like $1200? the latter ones are too nice.

Re: Recent Purchases

They were about 6 bills. Slim leg, a bunch of buttons on the inside and button back pockets. I'll take some pics right now. They are extremely gorgeous and I actually really didn't notice the color untill I put them into the natural light.

There was a pant with knit cuffs at the bottom and almost sweatpant/trouser-esque that were amazing! (again, $1200!)

Re: Recent Purchases

Here's some pics. The Barneys here had a great trouser with a stripe going down the side that I'm gonna go back for.

Re: Recent Purchases

what's the composition on the pants? how do they fit?

[Casius]

Re: Recent Purchases

The label says 100% Laine (??) and the lining is 100% cotton. It feels like a soft wool and the fit is nice and slim (this is a 50 but has a 16" waist).

Re: Recent Purchases

it's laine wool. very nice. what's the hem measurement?

Re: Recent Purchases



Trousers look nice, Cas (can never have too many nice-fitting trousers :))

50 with a 16" waist? Wow, I could probably get away with a 48 in those.

btw Laine == Wool, en français.

Re: Recent Purchases

Ah, thanks Analog. I figured it was wool from the feel but just wasn't sure. :) I agree about trousers too, I'm addicted to them, plus, you can only wear jeans so much.

Joey- The hem is about 7.5". They are unfinished as well and pretty long.

Man everyone is buying up good shit. I was at margiela today and found two new things I have to have, that guy always does that to me every time I count him out. Seems this season everyone is stepping their game up.

[quote user="merz"] don't worry - the way things are going, next season he might mix it up with a little testicular cleavage.

Does that mean we have to start shaving then?

Re: Recent Purchases

shaved ball cleavage sounds like the next big thing

Re: Recent Purchases



Gorgeous buys, Casius. I especially love the polo - grey and brown is such a classy colour combo. I wish I could afford anything Lanvin!

Re: Recent Purchases

nice stuff, I agree on the polo, looks great. the collar is a really nice touch

Re: Recent Purchases



Love the pants, Casius. Are those the signature Lanvin solid buttons on the back pockets? Those buttons sometimes almost make me do unreasonable things to my wallet.

Orochi, how's Balenciaga these days in terms of fit and quality?
