Holy hell, you won’t be able to wear them in England. They’d be deemed a weapon!

eh, england is not the US. my friend's mum was a model in the 60s, i remember her telling us she and all her friends wore boots so pointy they had to walk sideways down staircases.

can it smell like a hobo (see 2nd hand)?

alternatively, can we sacrifice multiple child laborers to its creation (see h&m)?
1. Would prefer not 2. Yes

Problem with booth boots like that is unless you have tiny feet they're going to make you look like you wear 2 sizes bigger than you do.

I had put on a nearly full Schneider outfit earlier and was like this is too costumey for breakfast haha.

It was the rock coat in the grey cashmere, a dark grey roll neck, the cream wool trousers a few seasons back, and guidi boots. I might wear it out to dinner but it felt too much in the am

I do not understand how you could walk up a flight of stairs in those. Maybe each pair comes with a person to carry you? I'm thinking a butler wearing a scarf instead of a shirt.

I thought substituting a scarf for a shirt was crazy and it worked out fine, pointy shoes shouldn’t be a problem haha
The only time I've seen this working is with Hermes scarves, which can be tied to create halter. Would like to see how this works on a guy.

For me it took some trial and error but the best way is with DB suits. I found this perfect knit like wool DB that is essentially a deep v-neck when I button it so all I do is fill that space with a scarf. I found the perfect artisanal Margiela scarf in that it is wide and long yet thin silk. On a regular jacket I found that sometimes in the space between the jacket and pants I could see a sliver of my skin so I thought it ruined the look......now in a beach setting I go Rico Suave no ***** given

For example I could wear this jacket by itself no problem and I think it would look cool, of course I’ve been looking at Margiela looks books for a while so I’ve always emulated that look
