Does natural tanning allow the leather to develop patina and last longer or just bs? I read that chrome tanning is really bad for the environment. Posted about this coat a couple months ago but the owner ultimately decided to keep. Today he pm'd me a Y! link for the exact same one but with the detachable fur collar. I'm kinda conflicted about this. What season is it from? Is OG Helmut Lang all grail or something? The Yen is really weak right now which will probably be the deciding factor (and andy's opinion). http://page13.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/r123643208 http://www.styleforum.net/t/417117/og-helmut-lang-quilted-red-toj-moto-cdgh-james-long#post_7356213 lol why does my opinion matter so much i think it's a nice collector's item, but also very wearable. I'm not sure what I'd actually pay for it though On January 30 2015 10:49 zulu_nation8 wrote: he was doing monochrome before anyone else was (?) rei kawakubo was doing monochrome since the 80s, and i guess it could probably be argued that yohji is the progenitor of the pallete (or rather, the one who brought it into public consciousness) both of them can also be considered inspiration for the current generation (through the 90s) of deconstructionist centered themes. | ||

In looking up HL, I'm really struck by how modern his collections were, especially FW99. | ||

As in has there truly been anything new over the past couple of years in avant-garde fashion? Not that originality is what all designers strive for. In looking up HL, I'm really struck by how modern his collections were, especially FW99. I'm not qualified to answer this question imo you're better off asking an actual art student i mean i could give opinions but they'd simply unsubstantiated/uninformed personal observations | ||

In looking up HL, I'm really struck by how modern his collections were, especially FW99. this is too subjective to answer really. what do you consider new? a new silhouette? a new "concept" of shoes? is there anything such as new designs of shoes anymore? the cut of garments? answers could vary from season to season all the way to decade to decade how would anybody even begin to answer this? | ||

I wonder what he got them for; 200 is still pretty cheap even if he marked them up a bit. I did notice people trying to sell those Mr Porter x Raf velcros for $400 after buying them for $130. | ||
