It's what we're here for. Camouflage in NYC ( 212-741-9118) has had those for a couple of weeks now. I also have mine - it's great, and my fave piece this season from Geller. I originally wanted it for the fact that it had a high-waist belt, but I'm finding it doesn't look as great on me that way as it did on the model. Which is fine, since it doesn't actually come with a belt, belt loops notwithstanding!

thanks for the info! so Iguessthey come in leather and fabric? which ones do camouflage have?

Hmm, I don't even recall it being in fabric. Camouflage has the leather ones.

Ah, IF carries Dries? I was actually gonna send you a pm and see if you knew of any other stockist in NY other than Barneys. For LA, Barneys and Fred Segal are the only stockists. (Still have yet to check out the latter)

I agree mesh. Seems like the Japanese stores know how to buy, they always have the nice items.

Like this sweater..

TNT blue in Toronto has both I believe. I was in a hurry so I didn't check their prices though, and Canadian retailers generally carrysubstantial mark-ups compared totheir American counterparts (made worse by our strong dollar).

Does anyone have pics of the front of this sweater? It looks incredible!

And to echo everyone elses sentiments, I saw the collection at Barneys and sort of wrote it off. You'd never expect it to be the source of some of the most amazing knitwear going.

CDiem isn't being sold this season, at least no new items are.

Re: help finding



This question isnt in terms of finding a particular piece per se, but more generally focused.

For those of you who take great advantage of yahoo auctions japan(and cannot read japanese) do you mostly just go through the hassle of using various translators to translate entire pages and certain selections of wording? any tips on making it a bit easier?

also, i assume most of you then go through a proxy to do the bidding and whatnot once you want to pull the trigger?

thanks

Re: help finding

cd1- Yea, that's exactly what I've always done. Just translate the page with google to get measurements and the like, then go through a proxy service for ordering. This seems to be the easiest way.

Anyone know where I can find a shoe similar to these?

Re: help finding

what's your budget cas? i just saw a dark blue patent/satin(? or suede? not too sure) pair by lanvin at barney's.

[Casius]

Re: help finding

Oooo, those sound nice. I'm guessing those are around 8 bills?

Lanvin's footwear this Fall and next spring is gonna kill me.
