transitioning from a pure yyph wardrobe to a yohji/og helmut/early raf mix
Thinking about how I can mix the yyph and helmut pieces in a good way
going to buy a couple nice hl outwear pieces in the next month or so looking to drop 1-2k on them
>>9556801
Noticed you said vintage raf, got something against current raf? I'm being serious please don't give me a troll answer I'd like to ACTUALLY discuss fashion
>>9556827
he's a shell of what he used to be. He's started to rip off other collections and now uses cheap materaials.
>>9556827
the shit raf puts out is nowhere near the level of his early 2000's and late 90's stuff
go back and look at consumed, riot riot riot, woe unto and then look at his current seasons and you will understand how shit he has become
yyph pants go with everything
helmut lang denim jacket go with everything
yohji turtleneck + helmut bomber go with everything
user yyph basics + hl outerwear/accent pieces
been wearing a lot of krisvanassche lately
no reason why, just fucking clean tailoring with a build quality that looks like its from kmart
old school mugler still chilling in the closet, it's a rayon blended with linen
not too fond of the material but mugler's fastening system was innovative for the time
been on this kick for over a year now, just settled into it
>>9556849
I bought a real cheap piece a few years ago that mocked a few CCP's I liked.
Literally changing buttons and getting things tailored made me look like I spent much more money than I already had.
So why is this considered not okay in the fashion world?
>>9556848
I thought you were permabanned?
>>9556839
the denim lang jacket i have right now is pretty fitted i'll try it with my loose wool gab yyph pants
i got a high neck yohji sweater that ill pair with lang bomber when i buy one
>>9556864
not sure if i'd rock lang denim with yyph
lang had some killer jackets in the late 90's though
on par with raf
knew how to tailor/fit nylon
>>9556880
i might as well try
>>9556801
also, i have the 5zip and the moto vintage margiela leathers (back when they weighed 13.5lbs each)
and had the structure that stood off of your back and swept back (can see it in the 1998 look book when he was at hermes) should i sell that shit and get the anemic but more modern looking 5lbs leather jackets that fit your body and lack all the kick ass details like the sleeve that comes up to your knuckle and flares at the wrist that ccp exaggerated a decade later
>>9556880
theres versions of the lang denim jacket that are zip fastened instead of button and they're matte exterior with like a cotton+polyamide blend that are very minimal. go with everything.

actually that would be sick with the cleaner yohji pieces
>>9556903
I dig that on it's own. I would pair it with some slim cut wool pants.
>>9556901
dont think you should part with an OG 5 zip unless you dont wear it, those are special.
Sorry if this isnt the right thread, but i was curious as how everybody learns about brands/designers histories and just having general knowledge about fabrics and clothing in general. Is it something that you need to be working with first hand or is there any sites that can help expand my knowledge?
Thanks.
hey m, hope things are getting better for you. wishing you well.
