Stumbled upon a store in the UAE, The Style Chamber, that has a rather extensive selection (both men's and women's) from the current season.

There's a lot of things on yahoo.jp and a few japanese stockists, yes, but I can't recall them off the top of my head.

very strange how large that buy is given that the store seems to have almost no other menswear to speak of.

Anybody know if SS did a long sleeve version of this exact print not Navy marble print. I am aware of that one.

X-posting from sales thread; SS on sale @ southwillard. Suppose to start Thursday but you can order now through the usual trick with their sales.

Does anyone know what would happen if I picked up an ijevan two sizes too large? Anyone with kids/girlfriends lying around want to do a fit pic for me...

I'm hoping it looks slouchy but i could also see it just look like a half-assed robe with weird shoulders halfway down my arms

I'm too lazy to translate everything, so I'll just sum it up.


In the beginning he talks about what makes a talented student, which is mainly a combination of passion and discipline. Afterwards he's being asked to compare the Royal University of Antwerp to the University of Arts Berlin, which basically boils down to Antwerp having more of a laissez-faire type of teaching while in Berlin they actually support the students until they've finished their bachelor/diploma. The final question is about why young/upcoming designers from Germany usually have a greater appeal to countries outside of Europe.
He explains that it's basically because most Europeans are focused on the luxury aspect of high fashion, which you can't really convey or create as a newcomer. According to Schneider countries like Japan have a different attitude towards fashion, as in they're more interested in design and craftsmanship rather than the price tag.

The last question is something about an upcoming runway show, which isn't really relevant I guess.

It won't look good, the shoulders are too stiff and it will just look oversized.
