I don't know what on earth your point with the latter part there is, but either way this can be discussed somewhere else than the waywt thread, thank you."AVANT GUARDE HIGHEST FASHION. NOW NOW this is it people, these are the brands no one fucking knows and people are like WTF. they do everything by hand in their freaking secret basement and shit."

christianef, as another female who has been buying/wearing Ann for awhile, i am totally bewildered by your post...in five years, i have never tried on a shoe of hers that didn't run exactly one size too big, for example. All of my garments are either 36 or 38, usually consistent with whether the garment is unstructured or tailored...she is, as darklands says, remarkably consistent in this regard.
And I don't understand this challenge to Hobo at all....why would he buy a piece he considers "terrible?"
edit: sorry, ML!

So I told him : "I'm Christian, and I will enter in this christian church". He couldn't refuse no more.
No, actually, I put Khiev's jacket on my shoulders and gave him back when we were in to take the picture, since I'm A TRUE REBEL PUNK.

nah, you do remember that the suits are custom right? lift has a good measure of ccp suits, selvedge stuff left.... mostly in size 46-48... and they should receive their next shipment within the next two weeks now that some of the ccp staff are back at work. i think the same goes for atelier... but i did kop m.a+.
the ccp lift order is huge... and their ccp and m.a+ installation exhibit is awesome. you dont realize how mindblowing the ccp rubber drip leather bag is until you see it in real... but of course you've already handled it, right S-A?

Christianef,
You should go back and read Hobo's posts. He's got a lot of knowledge to offer and lots of input for discussions.
If I remember correctly, he didn't even reveal who he was for a while nor his affiliation with any store. Someone (David?) realized it was him in the CCP thread I believe.
Any good shop owner (regardless of what industry it is) can tell you that you buy what sells so you can facilitate and continue the act of making a living. Why would what he carries have any relevance at all?Originally posted by mizzarSorry for being kind of a dick to you.

Seriously, christianef - why are you turning this into an attack on Hobo? Let's make one thing clear - I invited him here. I met him in Paris, we got to talk and I saw that he was genuinely passionate about what he does, so I said he should check out the forums. He did and he liked it. He then asked if Pollyanna can be an affiliate, and I was more than happy to have a store of such caliber, a real fashion institution in England, to be on SZ. And I don't understand the criticism of posting what he wears when MOST OF IT is not what's even in store right now. And what the hell do you really expect an owner of a fashion boutique to wear?! This whole discussion is beyond bizarre. It is equally bizarre to blame someone for buying something that you don't like.
