I'm absolutely in love with this brand but I cannot damn justify the cost... 800$ CAD minimum for a hoodie?? I might as well buy a raf sweater for that cost...

Does anybody own any vetement clothes? Is there anything that makes it so special/ is there some secret craft involved that I'm missing?
>>
You are paying for the styling and an above average quality garment
>>
you might as well
vetements is the new (and better) raf simons
you know its true
give them a lil more time if you doubt this
>>
>>10993955
Lol u mean margiela
>>
>>10993955
No it isn't

Vetements is literally the brand new Off-White


Gemna finessing kids racks for a fucking champion hoodie with minimal fucking screenprint, just like Virgil Abloh did with the Pyrex hoodie and chargin $300 for it (I owned an authentic one I bought for the super low)

Fucking trends make these hype-beasts spend hella, and when you're trying to make it impossible to buy then just cop from this bullshit "Memeciaga" creative designer
>>
>>10994000
I really can't tell if this is b8 or not, if so it is well constructed because I can't tell if you are memeing or just some clueless fuckboi
>>
>>10994012
U stupid faggot it's the obvious playing with oversized shapes and deconstruction. It's not at all like raf you're the fucboii
>>
>>10993919
Just buy fakes.
Supbank on Taobao has this for 300 yuan approx.
>>
>>10993919
Wtf is this shit
>>
>>10994011
how are you going to compare gemna to the embarrassment that is virgil abloh
he never meant to appeal kids that was never his vision
the man has been doing this for a while and the only reason hes popping on a surface level now is because of kanye cosign but thats irrelevant
hes going to be one of the greats just wait
purists are only talking shit because of the pop culture surrounding it
>>10994000
pls kys
>>
>>10994049
Explain how he's not this generations margiela u kill yourself you superior prick
>>
Anyone who thinks Vetements is anything but shit have fallen for the hype.
>>
>>10993919

>>
>>10994070

It's Fear of God wrapped in childhood nostalgia.

She looks like the navi from Avatar mixed with elves from LOTR
>>
>>10993919
honestly i'd give it a bit more time
so far they've only done womenswear (as they label it) although it is fairly unisex
personally i like the aesthetic. the hype is a shame though. fuccbois gotta ruin everything
>>
>>10995625
this it tite

Honestly I really like the aesthetic. I don't think the price is justified though. that being said i haven't felt one so i'm not sure of the quality.
>>
>>10994096
lmfaooooo how close-minded and ridiculous u sound... a hoodie is a hoodie lol
>>
>>10995663
I don't think fuccbois can afford it desu i haven't seen vetements worn outside of rich as hell chinese/japs
>>
>>10997156
the #1 fuccboi Asspizza has been wearing it. so his followers are all over it now
>>
>>10997190
link? cant find anything on that
>>
>>10996686
Mind posting a review when you get it, please?
>>
To be honest I'm a huge fan of the entire brand, I think some of their clothes are extremely nice (as to everything there are exceptions like the star girls shit), the deconstruction (denim) is fantastic – my girl owns a pair of the new season jeans – the star spangled and cigarette boots are incredible.

Their styling at their shows isn't really working for me, however the pieces themselves (and a few editorials/styling shots) are what really shine for me. And something about men wearing "womens" clothing makes it all the more interesting imo.

kek

you're either lying to yourself or know way less thank you think you do if you think vetements isn't just a reimagining/rehash of older margiela principles

a good chunk of their design philosophy comes straight from demna's time there
>>
>>10996756
i agree, but i read some article that talked about it as a way of demand management. given that they're still so small they want to keep prices up to keep it exclusive, and to keep production costs manageable until they can afford to expand

imo it's a better way of doing it than doing just limited supply
>>
>>10997240
Whenever I see this man wearing something I like, I like it less.
>>
>>10997293
uninformed but what's gemna's role at vetements? isn't he just at balenciaga
>>
>>10997331
Ssense and i think business of fashion both did interviews with him recently, go take a read its pretty interesting
>>
>>10997342
thanks a lot!
>>
>>10997331
he's the head designer and public face for the team, but yeah like >>10997342 said those interviews are great
>>
>>10996686
is this the "t-shirt" version, or is it the thick sweatshirt one?
cus i wanna get both
>>
>>10995625
>tfw you'll never get a handy from her
>>
>>10998047

Men's variant would be Cav Empt I guess.
>>
>>10993955

Lol it's not the new Raf Simons whatsoever

More like the new Hood By Air
>>
>>10998356
the only reason ppl hate this guy is because they aren't him

him, ian connor and all those other guys are literally living the dream
>>
>>10999110
no idea who this is desu
>>
The quality is fucking garbage for the most part. When I see that DHL t-shirt that costs like 300 bucks I really think they are having a laugh about retards actually buying this.

The only thing worth the money are their jeans, which are artisanal and put together buy several different pairs of vintage jeans.
