Raf Simons Autumn/Winter 2017
What do you /fa/ think?
>>12202376
What does /fa/ think?*
>>12202378
Looks very inspired by New York. Can you tell?
>>12202381
Maybe also inspired by current trends by New York residents?
Nice pants
Really like this look. The silhouette is very nice and the use of the model's skin tone really complements the look.
>>12202378
HNGH
I NEED THIS
>>12202376
Another IheartNY sweater.
>>12202403
The cut that Raf uses in his pants/bottoms are always very nice.
>>12202391
>>12202411
Favorites so far
Also while on this is Raf going for an androgynous look?
I feel that the trend of making clothing unisex is gaining momentum, unless I'm just super late.
>>12202411
Another great silhouette.
>>12202414
>I'm just super late
>>12202415
These sleeve things are really reminiscent of the previous season's oversized varsity sweaters.
>>12202376
better than off-white will ever be
>>12202433
Disclaimer: The the things going around the models waists is tape, not belts.
>>12202381
>>12202411
these sweaters are musts for any raf archivist. really nice.
>tfw my friend got to see raf at work backstage
;_;
>>12202443
I really like this sweater, but not much a fan of the oversized look. And of course the cut of the pants.
>>12202449
Christ, this coat.
>>12202454
Christ, this entire look.
>>12202456
Anyone know what kind of shoe type that is or if it is one? Looks like wallabee's from the binding/stitching together.
This backpack's straps looks very interesting. Very tactical looking, wonder if there's a full view of it.
>>12202468
Sleeves down and khaki colored pants.
>>12202472
Not a real fan of these sweaters, but the shirt looks very nice.
>>12202476
I like this color way much better. Maybe pearls on men can be normalized?
>>12202477
Very nice coats. Too bad I can never wear them wear I live. Cool tape, though. Wonder if it will be for sale.
>>12202477
>Maybe pearls on men can be normalized?
Like chokers, only on androgynous dandies and gays.
>>12202485
This is very reminiscent of early Raf silhouettes.
>>12202486
Yeah I thought so.
>>12202493
Very boxy coats.
>>12202499
I really like this color palette. The coat looks very nice.
>>12202508
Another boxy coat and 'sleeve warmers'.
>>12202512
Another great sweater.
>>12202517
And another.
>>12202522
Zoot suits are in maybe? haha
>>12202525
Big boxy cuts.
>>12202528
Very nice look. Still Very boxy.
>>12202532
Another famous silhouette.
>>12202535
And another.
>>12202537
These pants just look so great.
>>12202538
Man, oh man.
>>12202545
Even more outerwear.
>>12202454
this coat! Ho my god
>>12202553
Very interesting sweater.
>>12202556
The little eyelets on the coat are also featured from 2016 I think.
>>12202508
this is great. I need to start saving to grab a coat, sweater and shirt from this collection ASAP
>>12202564
The cut of the pants yadda yadda yadda.
the quality of this fashion "analysis" is depressing
:(
>>12202570
I like the silver in the tape and pearls that accents this look.
>>12202549
this is /fa/cist
>>12202575
And that's it folks.
What did you think of the show? Did you hate it? Did you like it? What is your favorite part of this show? What is the worst part of the show? What did you think Raf was trying to pursue in this show. What do you think of the 'big, boxy' looks. r8, h8, b8 in here.
>>12202574
Me or websites? I'm just trying to get a discussion in this thread. Not really analyzing much.
>>12202597
I like it. Boxy fits are something ill always like because it's comfier for me since i have broad shoulders. Coats are really nice, sweaters are on point with a cropped cut so it's something i can wear for fall in Canada. Overall i rate it
why does raf like new york so much?
>>12202594
For me, I am honestly not liking this oversized look Raf and other designers are pursuing. The individual items in this show look very nice but the 'oversizeness' is kind of off putting for me. It's been kinda like this for the past 3 seasons (including this one) though I very much enjoyed ss16.
>>12202594
Why do you say that, pigfuck? What are your thoughts?
>>12202445
random jab but of course
>>12202437
>>12202631
meant to mention you
Some more random pictures from Highnobiety
>>12202644
>>12202644
Yeah, I can definitely see were you're coming from. I also feel more of his shows are being quite repetitive and raf falling for trends instead of attempting to set them.
>>12202680
ss03 anyone?
>>12202454
Will buy
>>12202682
What are all the sponsors on the bottom? Real or ficticous companeis?
Where is adidas x raf aw17?
>>12202806
you literally could have found that out yourself by taking a second to google them
>>12202813
fuck off hypebeast
>>12202525
Definitely some prohibition going on.
I like that.
Wanna be a gansta? nope, be a Mobster.
The pocket on the sweaters I think is a stake in the heart to the fanny pack craze round the chest craze. Or at least a fuck you.
>>12202926
>>12202549
That coat is dope, is the hood from underneath or is it just a sort of gathered collar from the coat?
Im inspired.
wtf
this is absolute garbage
>>12202948
Please explain why. Don't just say something and not explain.
>>12203271
He doesnt like, he doesnt have to explain.
>>12203274
Then his opinion doesn't matter one bit.
>>12203274
>>12202948
great discussion fellas
>>12202493
not really
which seasons are you talking about because I dont see it
>>12203336
ss99
I'll post a few
>>12203342
im not talking about the vest fit im talking about the picture you made the comment about... the suit under the coat
ohhh youre just replying to each comment you make my bad i misunderstood
>>12203349
Oh I see. It's all good friend!
>>12203356
also that silhouette is trash and boring i dont see why that would be a good thing. if he wants cool silhouettes take from aw04 not ss99
>>12203359
I can see why he uses it still. Yes, ss04 had really great silhouettes. Not much people talk about it, always 01-03.
Can this be just general fashion week thread?
Bothers the fuck out of me there is hardly any pictures of the G-Star Research II capsule collection
I want the white parka from the first collection bad
>>12203364
why does he use it?
ss04's highpoint were the trousers and the skull parka, a great but pretty unwearable season for the most part
>>12203386
If you'd like, but I thought there was a fw17 thread. Or was it archived?
>>12203389
Because it's almost like a signature from his shows. He's used it very much. The only thing I'd consider unwearable from aw04 are the one piece suits.
>>12203452
the vest and trousers? has he?
and im talking about ss04
and how on earth are the capes from aw04 wearable? and do you mean the wetsuits?
>>12203461
Oh my mistake. And yes those suits. You didn't like the capes? I liked them, especially the long bomber one.
Yeah, he uses it very often.
>>12203503
lol vest and trousers aren't a 'sillhouette'
the type im talking about is the exact fit of the vest and trousers as shown in ss99 and aw17
pretty much every designer ever pairs vests with trousers lmao wtf
yeah theyre cool but theyre not wearable
the bomber version is completely different imo and is wearable - probably the best piece of the collection
also pic related is a sleeveless shirt not a vest
>>12203511
>lol vest and trousers aren't a 'sillhouette'
It very much is, friend.
>and trousers as shown in ss99 and aw17 pretty much every designer ever pairs vests with trousers lmao wtf
Yeah that's why I specifically said a signature *his* shows, not every designers. Its not like he created vests and bottoms themselves.
>also pic related is a sleeveless shirt not a vest
That's what a vest is. A sleeveless top.
https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/vest
>>12203549
i wouldnt say two old examples of raf pairing vests with trousers makes it his signature or reminsicent of his early shows
it's not a silhouette its a basic pairing of two items - you might as well say a suit is a single 'silhouette'
that makes your comment about it being signature raf even more dumb because people have been wearing just a sleeveless top with trousers for about 60 years
>>12203386
There is only handful of pics so it's hard as fuck to judge if there is anything amazing here, the pants at least look better than in the last collection, but can't be sure even about that yet
>>12203599
This is cool as fuck though, I like it better than the bomber from the first collection
>>12203601
>>12203603
>>12203606
The jacket on the right looks pretty good
>>12203609
And I just realized this is from the first collection.
I need more pics of the new shit
Three days ago he was blasting off-white in an interview and now he's using the security tape which they used several times already lmao
>>12203705
It's just personalized tape. Raf has been doing stuff like this.
Here's his Coke can from 2003.
https://www.cokecollection.com/index.php?lang=en&pageid=50&canID=17499
it was safe and boring
raf used to cater to the youth, the youth have been catered to, and he's stopped trying
>>12204874
That's from ss98
You know fuck all about raf kill yourself
>>12205004
Black Palms is from ss98, yes. But the Coke can came out in 2003 as a commemorative item.
Click the link and read, ya goober.
>>12202522
God I will never get the long-long sleeve trend.
>>12202443
Jesus Christ, that's the most beautiful person I've ever seen
>>12202414
Bro, do you even Raf?
>>12202376
this shit is seriously fucking triggering me
some of the shapes look nice, but mostly it looks like these boys just store their mom's coat and jewelry to play dressup.
>>12202376
i really find it interesting that more or less "high"/advanced fashion comes closer and closer to making plain ugly clothes with a slight edge. it's almost like the person wearing the clothes stands out more than the clothes really, a small middle age balding man would look like a hobo in these
>>12203601
>>12203603
>>12203606
>>12203609
I love Aitor, Follow him on Facebook. Theres a few sneak photos of his new collection.
>>12206633
Yeah I saw those, still not enough
The bomber is fucking great though, love it
>>12206633
>>12206657
>>12206662
>>12206667
From Palais de Tokyo, for those that havent.
Surely someones got some snaps on a blog somewhere?
>>12206672
>>12206672
There were some pics on instagram but I posted the ones that actually showed anything interesting
looks well gay
>>12203271
like >>12202644 said, everything is ridiculously oversized and they have these obnoxious slogans shoehorned onto shit where it doesn't belong
the tape "belts" look like crap and the striped sleeves in a whole different fabric from the coats looks very off-putting
some of the coats are quite alright but really most of this doesn't look good, he's in the right to say that it doesn't
ridiculous =/= creative
>>12206191
Maybe that's the point?
He loves youth coulture, and thrift stores and second hand clothes are hot right now with young people.
>>12202376
Great return to his roots
fucking awful, horrible silhouettes, trouser tailoring looks like fucking garbage, the prints are godawful and recycled
raf has lost it
>>12207313
t. pleb
i bet you enjoy rick owens
>>12202376
Raf really lost his touch, by now only his collabs like Mapplethorne or Sterling are good. And this only becaude sourve material he puts on clothes is top tier.
