Talking about silk OL...
Mine always have flaky bits falling off and sticking to the pants.
Does this also happen to anyone else? ( it doesn't matter which color..but the white/offwhite ones are the most obvious)

None of mine are. I have three pairs -- washed grey, washed blue, and raw denim.

Still really nice jeans though. I really like the cut.

My selvedge raws are cut zero. Wish I got more as for $30 they were a damn steal at the sample sale.

Does anyone know how the 50's crewneck sweater fits? Wear a M in pretty much everything including John Elliott, Jcrew, Rag and Bone, etc. Been trying to track a duo pink down in medium but can only find large. My follow up question would be if anyone has the duo pink pullover in a medium and wants to get rid of it

Absolutely gutted over not checking for it on sale about 1 month ago. It was too much for me when it first came out, seeing it for like $70 or less at some places

More relaxed top block/ tapered, but not extremely so. Top block is more relaxed than APC NS/ 3sixteen SL cut. IIRC the leg opening is smaller than 3sxiteen's SL cut as well. Fits TTS.

If anybody has seen this still around in a 50 (7oz denim shawl zip shirt, think it was ss15):





I'd appreciate a PM. I picked up a 48 but thinking it might end up a little small.

I have the same problem. I have a newish white shirt (2 or 3 washes) and flaky stuff is everywhere. I'm hoping it'll pass after some time. I also have the one in dark green and it doesn't seem nearly as bad (might just be the colour though), and it's worn in very nicely.

Did you experience your flaky silk issue dissapear over time? I can buy another one of those shirts locally (the white silk one) on sale for half off, which is an absolute rarity in my experience, and I love these shirts...but the fact that I leave white bits of silk everywhere bothers me a bit so I'm hoping it's just gonna dissapear in a while.
