fucking hell why delete the pic, i actually thought it looked much nicer than most of the stuff posted here...

I'm proud to say i own a gucci bomber and i love it.

I have a D&G suit that goes quite well with a nice Prada shirt.

Let's just clarify. At least tell me you mean Dolce&Gabbana. Not D&G.
They do make a decent looking suit yet even though I worked with them for 6 years I never bothered getting one...

he he i never wanted to bring up the fact you work with them, when you hooking up with Gucci ;) ?

[Faust]

Faust or anyone who saw my fit, can you explain what about my fit was "impertinent." Other posters like Mail-moth do pre-modern style as well. Or is anything, like my hat, by D&G specifically not allowed in this thread?

My jacket was even Harnden-esque.

How should I put it... Like you know the difference between art and porn?
Now cut the shit, or you won't last here long. Final warning.

Skipped straight ahead to Donatella.

whatever one may think of their products, from the very minor dealings i've had with them, my take on dolce & gabbana is that it is/was a pretty professionally run business, at least relative to other italian firms...

their ethics when it comes to paying taxes, though, seem to possibly be more in line with the national average...

oh, and thx fuuma.

... a pretty professionally run business, at least relative to other italian firms...

Uhmmm, this is where i (should) shut up. Their main problem - same with the likes of versace - is that it's ultimately run by one person. At least at a creative level. That can be good. Or not.
Nevertheless, I could easily name some others I have dealt with that were in a league of their own, even by Italian standards.

I'll err on the safe side then and not post a fitpic in this thread. Would it be ok for me to post one in the small questions or random fashion thoughts thread so I can find out if you or anyone thinks it's appropriate for this forum?

right, i was mostly thinking operations/strategy. for instance buying back the d&g license but keeping the operations almost completely separate from the main line and making d&g practically a separate business unit, was genius from a business perspective, imho. this was a few years ago, though.

i'll make a point out of getting you drunk (wine, was it?) someday to hear all those good client stories...

I've gone on before about not liking deletion of posts in general, however ill-thought-out/offensive/crapulent/crappy, so won't start banging that drum again.

Ok, I will a little: even if a fit is terrible, better to let some comment happen as to why people think it's terrible. Deletion can just seem part and parcel with the whole "sick fit/terrible" dichotomy in people's responses, and encourages the idea that there's only success or failure rather than grey areas open to interesting discussion.

It's the borderline terrible outfits that are sometimes the most interesting, imo. As in: it's when treading the line of good/bad that we make new and interesting things. As much as this thread might serve to represent a particular "aesthetic" (*makes scare-quotes gesture with fingers*), if one never gets surprised, one eventually gets bored--and too many "safe" fits with "SZ approved" brands get posted here at times. Which creates a cycle, where new posters emulate the same fits that they see being posted/praised.

As much as Lelandj's posts about flouride being mind control or whatever have irritated me, he deserves at least to have the chance to embarrass himself, or to post a banal outfit, or maybe even do something different but OK, whichever this fell into, without being deleted. If the D&G cap was truly monstrous, we should all see it so we can give reasons why we think so.

(OK, that wasn't really a response to your post Interest1, you just reminded me that I had meant to post something along these lines yesterday and forgot... gonna leave the reply in there anyway cause it's kinda relevant... YOLOOOOO)

While your points are fair, I am much more in favor of meritocracy and not wasting people's time (my own especially, I must admit.), so I would like to stick with the rules on that one. The fit was something that would feel right at home on one of Styleforum's worst days, but not here.

I hope we can stop at that and move on, please.

it’s only a detail, but I’d choose another watch here. that golden AP is just too much for the black minimalism, especially with all your silver jewelery and the chrome hearts bling. the different metals kind of bite each other. don’t you have something simpler? silver, blackened steel, or stainless even?

…but maybe this is something for the watch thread. in general, I find the huge swiss models to be very difficult to pair with.
