My assistant, uh, (another) MBD (really), will PM you to discuss the best way to do this. The last thing I'd want to do is start a sloppy archive...

I actually have a friend who is indexing garments per designer per season, but not on runway but on wearer.
i dont know if it ever took off, but its a nice inspiration for here.
DmD as many said here, its beautiful, I consistently enjoy your outfits.
Oh I like...just wish there were more photos? For the SZ archives, we should start with basics -- labels with big bodies of work, and let it grow organically from there...
I'll move the SZ archives thread elsewhere, in the meantime.

Great MBD; Absolutely deserving of HOF. Junya has never been my thing but the womens' pieces are definitely great. Keep it up, I enjoy looking at your outfits.
"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."
in my eyes theres nearly always to much drape in Fark's looks,maybe its just not my thing but there for me is always to many things going on 1 to many layers or a oddly placed element (todays being the scarf),I know we arent to discuss physical appearence but I also think if you are going to subscribe to this 'look' you have to finish it with the right hair and glasses, for me your current look dosent look right with the clothes.
Ahah! I knew someone would say that! Quite like layering lots of thin pieces - feel like a walking blanket (looks the part too). I'm comfy, that's all that matters I guess.

Interesting. Seenmy, from your perspective as a stylist, what hair/glasses go well with this voluminous, drapey style?

I would rarely dress a look with glasses,from a personal perspective but he needs them to see I assume so needs to wear them,I think something rounder and deffinatly not so wide would much better suit the look,the current ones distract from what is already a busy way of dressing,hair wise the faux hawk is just not right,I would suggest being clean shaven ,hair in real life often depends on social situation so a all over 0 or 1 might not be appropriate for his life,although I think a neat 1 all over would be the simpliset thing to go with this look,as he cant exactly just grow 10 inchs of hair!I think with this kind of look you either have very short or very long hair.

I was planning to do an all over 1 actually! I think the glasses have been talked about before and I'm positive that I still love these, I'll wear them til they break but I should be in the market for new glasses in soon. Fanks for the advice.
Here are the general lengths specified by the different numbered length guards:
• #1 – one-eighth of an inch
• #2 – one-quarter of an inch
• #3 – three-eighths of an inch
• #4 – one-half of an inch
• #7 – seven-eighths of an inch
• #8 – one inch
I'd just received this fantastic Ann D hair piece that I'd never seen before from ArrDeeTee (thanks!), and so I was going to play with it, context be damned.
10 ply Jil Cashmere Cardigan - a staple and often too hot
Nabuk leggings from Ann D Blanche (they fit! with a pair of leggings worn underneath...)
Vin Diesel/J*s*s H. Chr*st Hockeyes from She-Male. I love the color.
Yesterday, someone inquired about the buttons on my Ann D boots. They are indeed functional and serve the same purpose -- to fasten -- as on the Hockeye boots. Here, a horizontal comparison:
Onward, to the new year, (unbelievably, my first as an SZer. Where have I been? In a cave with my caveman shoes?)
Cheers all,

I'm not certain if this is directed at me...you would like me to show all my CDG/Junya/Tricot/Tao pieces? please clarify and apologies in advance if I've misunderstood...
hello! i was talking to the two gentleman who were talking about their rick collections but you've brought up a great idea. i would love to see your pieces organized neatly. every now and again, actually fairly often, i will get a "" moment while browsing WAYWT and a wonderful piece catches my eye. it would be very interesting to see an SZ archive. the collections to be shown by members of this board will indeed be drool worthy. i know the wearer gives the garments life but seeing everything organized cohesively is definitely a worthwhile project/thread to start around here.
