FW05 “History of My World” All Shadows Hoodie
Raf Simons
$2,400
FW05 “History of My World” All Shadows Hoodie
Raf Simons FW05 "History of My World" All Shadows Hoodie. Despite the runway being absent of the highly sought after graphics for this season, Simons looked to revisit his personal milestones in his past for the two part FW2005 collection. Raf's display to his connection to music is undoubtedly the primer to his most compelling garments. FW05 was one of the last displays of such meaning, departing from such endeavors and focusing more so on modernist, sleek cuts inspired by euro subcultures. Graphics throughout this season were labeled with cryptic lyrics from The Cure, graphics inspired by the 1982 film "Poltergeist", and even a few references to experimental musician John Cage. The hoodies, tees and sweaters were massive and overwhelming, patched with what looks like a collage of Raf's personal visual displays, with the help of peter de potter, of his inspirations and nostalgia. Just like the old days Caressing an old man And painting a lifeless face Just a piece of new meat in a clean room The soldiers close in under a yellow moon All shadows and deliverance Under a black flag A hundred years of blood Crimson 8/10 condition. Size 46, fits massive.$2,400 -

FW07 “Navigate” Taupe Lamb Leather Jacket
Hedi Slimane's last collection for Dior, FW07 "Navigate" Lambskin Leather Jacket in a taupe colourway. Hedi Slimane weaved his Dior designs with music, but unlike other designers takes on a passive visual approach, taking motifs from his photography or whichever musician he at the time fancies. "Fashion = music + youth + sex", Hedi's personal declaration doesn't come short in this collection as he commissions English music group "These New Purtians" for "Navigate, Navigate" which ran through the entirely of the campaign. Models sported drop crotch loose pants, militant boots and jackets, tweed blazers with Pollock like graphics with all looks accompanied with over-extended sleeves. Supple leather jacket features paneled geometric detailing, extended sleeves and fully lined in cupro in the sleeves and viscose in the body. Lampo zipper with button clasp concealing placket. 8/10 condition. Mild marks on cuffs, creasing in collar area, relatively well kept and maintained. Leather is smooth and supple.

Fw01 “Riot Riot Riot” Skirted Camo Bomber

$8,350
Fw01 “Riot Riot Riot” Skirted Camo Bomber
Raf Simons Fw01 "Riot Riot Riot" Skirted Camo Bomber. As Raf's garments become more and more coveted, only circulating in the tucked away collector's marketplace, it becomes harder to document the pieces that actually hold historical and aesthetic significance as they become harder to come in hand. Held at an abandoned warehouse in Paris, fog machines spewing smoke, Aphex Twin blaring overhead was Raf's most influential and iconic runway: FW01 "Riot! Riot! Riot!", dedicated to isolated hero Richey Edwards from the Manic Street Preachers. Models were coded in black, grey, olive and muddy colours, completely covered in scarves, outerwear, baggy pants, oversized everything. This was a massive turn for Raf, as his previous collections consisted of sartorial, slim, finely cut and precisely designed garments which were influenced by upperclass youth. Undoubtedly influential to current day designers, but mostly ignored by the hoi polloi at its time. “At the flea market in Vienna, I saw youngsters from the Ukraine or Romania, who simply lay layer by layer and thus create their own volumes because of the cold,” Neue Zürcher Zeitung Raf captured the ethos of iconoclasm with this season. The runway was filled with large silhouettes of intense layering and wreaked of radicalism. Each look represented a slice of opposition, more specifically from the youth. This collection also happened to be shown a bit before the 9/11 attacks, but is believed to be more of a quiet observation of racial tensions and political turmoil in northern Europe at the time. Skirted bomber is actually a repurposed surplus military bomber with a detachable skirt made with thick double layered cotton. Faded and meant to look worn. First look that walked the catwalk. 8/10 condition. One Size, Fits S-XL.$8,350 -

90s ‘Creation of Adam’ Printed Knit Cardigan
Jean Paul Gaultier mid 90's mainline 'Creation of Adam' Printed Knit Cardigan. JPG in the mid 90s explored the application of renaissance era graphics on his signature 'tattoo tees' and knits. This knit features an odd juxtaposition of a noir tech-punk chest graphic complemented by Michael Angelo's "Creation of Adam" painting on the back, arms and reversible inside. Painting's graphic is applied directly on the knit while the tech, 'horned man', motif is printed on a fabric which is sewn over the knit base. JPG, a strong pioneer of unisex clothing, has a "Maille" line, outside of "Maille Femme", which features mainline knits able to be comfortably worn by both men and women. As JPG ripened in the late 90's he pulled away from the "Enfant Terrible" and started to hone his eccentric creative direction into something more full and bright, but sound and percise. This eventually led his journey to Hermes succeeding Margiela's years at the house. 9/10 condition, a very mild mothhole in the shoulderblade. Size L, fits loosely a mens M-L, XL fitted.$510 -

FW09 Layered Silk Jacquard Blazer
$800Number (N)ine FW09 Layered Silk Floral Jacquard Light Jacket. FW09 was the magnus opus for Takahiro Miyashita as he exited N(N) -- what his fans thought was his permanent departure from his creative aspirations. The collection featured 18th and 19th century influences with intricate tailoring and masterful craftsmanship. One of the more costly collections, Miyashita's FW09 creations featured layered pattern silk for lining, embossed floral designs and velvet appliques. This is the most detailed version of the jacket featuring an embossed floral design throughout the silk outer with the silk floral lining extending from the edges of the jacket.
Continuing the interview with Takahiro Miyashita, the focus shifts towards the stylist of Number (N)ine: Hirishi Noguchi. Long term N(N) stylist chimed in on Miyashita's outlook with the brand stating that "Miyashita wasn't partial to the brand since 2007". This occurred after his 2006 "Axl Rose" collection which Miyashita debuted as a "joke", but the audience's reaction was too stern for the designer, leaving him disappointed. He was expecting Miyashita to step down from Number (N)ine since fall of last year so it didn't come to a surprise when the announcement came 08 of January. Noguchi then knew that the following collections were purely out of the designer's creative aspirations with little interest in monetary return. The interview closed with Noguchi stating that he sat back, understood the path that Miyashita was taking and simply "watched him run".

Number (N)ine by Takahiro Miyashita Wool/Silk Jacket in black. FW09, named by Miyashita as "The B side to my final 'album'", was his final show for Number (N)ine. At at interview with WWD magazine in 2008, Miyashita spoke about the current state of affairs with the brand and reminisced about N(N)'s past. Takahiro professed that in SS09, the "A Side", he ignored the financial constraints for his collections and solely focused on "what he wanted to do". He later admitted in the interview that the collection didn't put monetary returns as a priority and continued to apply the same practice in his final collection. WWD followed up with a question regarding the vendors which rely on Number (N)ine as a strong basis of income and raised concern that said vendors will run into obstacles finding new brands when they relied on N(N) as a part of their store identity. Takahiro replied by simply saying that vendors should understand "when a band has done everything it has to go". The interview will continue with the next item Wool outer, silk lining.

SS03 “Consumed” Penelope Tree Shark Hoodie
Raf Simons
$1
SS03 “Consumed” Penelope Tree Shark Hoodie
"There are three reasons to come to Paris: Hedi Slimane of Dior, Tom Ford of Yves Saint Laurent and Helmut Lang. Actually, there is a fourth -- Raf Simons, who in a parking garage on Sunday night -- on a platform made of crushed soda cans -- superbly articulated how contemporary culture has become a thoughtless Pac-Man, gobbling up products as well as references. It's rare for a designer to make a political statement in fashion and still offer wearable clothes" -- Cathy Horyn 2002 Raf Simons SS03 "Consumed" Penelope Tree Shark Hoodie in blue over black. SS03 "Consumed" is Raf's quiet observation of consumerism, or to be "consumed" by consumerism -- Its effects on youth; Their impartial interaction with such commercial entities and the molding of adolescent identities rooting from the collective indifference towards the squandering influence of commercial identities. This is the iconic and highly sought after hooded sweatshirt featuring Penelope Tree, from Truman Capote's Black & White ball, and Steven Spielberg's mechanical shark from Jaws in the backdrop, with "Diamond Co-Opted" written underneath the kangaroo pocket. The Penelope Tree print featured here on the hoodie derives from a picture which served as a pivotal point in fashion, youth culture and high society America. The original black and white picture has beanpole figured Tree staring dauntingly out in the distance from amongst a group of middle age socialites. This grabbed the attention of prominent figures of fashion and despite strong opposition from Penelope's father, as she was 16, Penelope Tree became the quintessential swinging sixties icon which galvanized female youth culture and movements at the time. Furthermore, inspired a generation of artists and designers to look at youth culture for inspiration and solidified the Youthquake movement. As for Raf Simons, and this is purely out of speculation, Penelope Tree holds a special place of interest as his source of inspiration will be and has been the youth.$1 -

$400
Early 80’s Straight Jacket Bomber
Issey Sport or "I.S. by Tsumori Chisato" Straight Jacket Bomber. In 1977 Tsumori Chisato teamed up with Issey Miyake to create yet another diffusion label titled " Issey Sport" which focused on street minded sporting garments in classic, wide silhouettes. Unbeknownst to most, especially in western regions, Issey Sport was one of many diffusion lines of the Issey Miyake brand, but solely spearheaded by Chisato without the creative input of Issey himself. Initially called "Issey Sport" the name was changed to "IS by Tsumori Chisato" by Issey Miyake in 1983 to cement Chisato's involvement and presence with I.S which eventually helped her establish her own women's label in the 90's. There is very little documentation and reference to the diffusion brand, most likely due to the lack of interest by fashion publications as the practice of major fashion houses capitalizing on the mass production of cookie cutter diffusion labels was prevalent at the time. Interest in the brand is a recent development which sprouted from the influence of the current climate of men's fashion and its tendency to look "back to the archives". Heavy almost nearly canvas material in cotton. Multiple eyelet details around collar. "Bondage Straps" and harnesses around chest and arms. Adjustable waist belt. Fits wide. Alligator print on the cotton lining which reads "Issey Sport". 7.5/10 condition. Womens size 8 which translates to a medium very well as this is a loose fitting piece.$400 -

$1,500
AW05 “History of My World” Peter De Potter Hoodie
Raf Simons AW05 "History of My World" Hoodie with Peter De Potter graphic. Raf's relationship with Peter de Potter is the foundation for the label's well acclaimed cryptic graphical works. Both graduating from The Royal Academy of Fine Arts, and originally a supposed one time collaboration for 2000-2001, the two worked together under the guidance of head of fashion Walter Van Brenondoink (a strong advocate of interdisciplinary work) with photographer Willy Vanderpere and stylist Oliver Rizzio to create the book "Isolated Heroes", the catalyst to Raf's prime years. Raf Simons later borrowed photographs from said book in a recent collection titled "Isolated Heroes". Crafted poems, graphics, collages which abruptly collided with Raf's relationship with music or youth and were displayed in a vague, enigmatic medium was spearheaded by Peter de Potter and continued 9 years after Isolated Heroes. Due to the nature of the graphics, the words or prints on Raf's clothing is a melting pot of musical and personal references which require acute dissection. Seems though, there's something -real- which emanates past all those layers that make some gravitate towards Raf/Peter's work. 9/10 condition. Size 54, very rare size, fits big, XL-XXL.$1,500 -

$800$555SS16 “Cylcops” Calf LeatherMoto Jacket
From the iconic SS16 (Cyclops) collection, Rick Owens refined his Moto Jacket cut with soft thick calf leather giving it a rather structured look. Like most other looks in cyclops this jacket was strongly influenced by militaristic aesthetics. The zipper is angled across the front panel of the jacket complementing the asymmetrical subtle details. Featuring many pockets and high quality zippers this jacket along with other Rick jackets is one that can withstand a lifetime. For cyclops, Rick Owens instructed his models to walk the runway sporting fur covered tubes over the head blocking their peripheral vision. Rick described the philosophy behind this with a metaphor on masculinity: "This Rick Owens spring summer 2016 men's collection is titled Cyclops a monster with a narrow focal point. I can see this in myself in my determined urge to find the straightest line from point a to point b as quickly as possible. A trait I have always assumed is mostly a masculine one. And I’m constantly trying to make sure this ambitious urge for efficiency and control doesn’t teeter over into aggression. I suspect a lot of other men wrestle with that too." Size 48.

AW04 “Waves” Paisley YinYang Crewneck
Raf Simons AW04 "Waves" Paisley Yin/Yang Crewneck Pullover. The Ying/Yang design was used throughout the collection as a possibly reference to a euro-techno recording label and a nudge to the "Waves" ethos which is summed up beautifully here: "The collection for explores the idea of conscious confinement and wilful enclosure. Again starting with the concept of an imaginary community outside of regulated society, the whole of the collection evokes the feeling of enlightenment and personal enrichment one can find in extreme but self-chosen isolation. The collection references at random various drop-out cultures that are conceived as likeminded tribes but when examined closely, are in fact gatherings of individuals seeking self-fulfilment through lonely practice. Wave cultures, cultures of rave waves and ocean waves. Eyes closed, alone with music, living only inside music, happily disappearing into the vortex of sounds and emotions. Arms wide open, alone with nature, taking to the sea, drifting away from the shore, fully realising the only options are drowning or surviving." Size 46, fits oversized. Can accommodate an S-L.$582 -

AW03 “Closer” Puffer Down Moto Jacket
Raf Simons AW03 "Closer" Puffer Down Moto Jacket in a dark navy. Simons's "Closer" touches base with his roots to music, especially with Joy Division and New Order, with Raf's Peter Saville admiration spearheading the entire collection. Taken from the Mode Museum in Antwerp: "This season, Raf Simons was granted full access to the archives of Peter Saville. Raf Simons made a personal selection of Saville-designed works (some of them previously unseen) to integrate them into his collection. As a long-time admirer of Peter Saville, Raf Simons considers this a great honour, and therefore dedicates his collection to the man who put an unique spin on music culture. The collection itself focuses on traditional styles and fabrics, augmented by a mod influence. Linked to the aesthetics of Peter Saville, there are also touches of early Russian Constructivism, Bauhaus and vintage British looks. At the same time, the collection reflects on the process of growing up and (re)considering adulthood, citing references to childhood dress codes, formal business looks and ghetto rebellion." Cleanly executed crossover of a puffer jacket and moto jacket, which nods to two different functions and styles from two worlds and tailors them harmoniously together. Puffer jacket is structured as a moto jacket and sought to be fitted close to the chest. Multiple functional zip pockets. Snap button down lapels. Round and wide silhouette. Adjustable waist buckles. Arm pocket. High waisted. 8/10 condition. Right pocket is blown out and needs repair. Size 54, extremely rare size. Fits an XL-XXL.$1,200 -

Junya Watanabe SS06 "Arkansas Football" Varsity Moto Jacket in Red. Many forget that Junya Watanabe's "Man" line is unlike his more focused self titled women's which roots original ideas from season to season. The 'Man' line typically reintroduces multiple themes and designs from Watanabe's time capsule which borrows or reissues from older seasons -- Most common being the "poem" designs which were released in 2001, 2005, 2008/09 and recently. The varsity theme is one of the few themes that stays unique to only two years: 2002 and 2006. The season featured nostalgic motifs from middle America varsity sports and school mascots. Pants, hoodies, tees and shirts sported graphics of said mascots and logos. Unique to this season however, a handful of these designs were printed on garments with biker details which were indicative by padded knees, shoulders and zips on limb ends to tuck boots or gloves under. Moto jacket is of a sweatshirt material. Moto details include adjustable leather waist straps, padded details, zippered pockets and wrist zips. Faded red. 8/10 condition. Distressing on graphics.

Saint Laurent Paris by Hedi Slimane FW14 Plaid Wool Double Breasted Jacket w/ Calf Suede Western Yolk. During his prime at SLP, Hedi pioneered and molded the Cali-western look for Saint Laurent which flourished with surface fashion goers due to the look's accessibility. Hedi provided a men's uniform, something by many which, to today's standards, is considered "wearable". Critics may argue that Hedi Slimane may not bring any new ideas or strong conceptual narratives to his collections. Conversely, others may argue Hedi is not only the largest figure in men's fashion, but promotes its much needed growth in numbers. Now with Hedi Slimane at Celine and with Celine's first Men's Collection coming around the corner, there may be a glimpse of Hedi pushing the envelope of men's fashion as he did in his early days of Dior while simultaneously bringing the same hype to his "look" when he was at SLP. 100% Wool providing solid insulation. 100% silk lining. Back and front yoke made of soft calf suede. 2 interior pockets and 2 stash pockets. Length stops below waist. 8.5/10 condition. Mild Piling otherwise mint condition.

$780
SS01 “010” Men’s Artisanal Hand Painted Denim Jacket
Maison Margiela SS01 Men's Artisanal "010" Hand Painted Vintage Denim Jacket. From the interview with Interview Magazine: " From very early on, we came to the point where we realized that, in addition to our main line, we wanted to do something more than take our creative ideas and develop them through an industrialized process. That’s why we launched our Artisanal line. Its concept was-and still is-to reconstruct new garments by using other garments or accessories, used or new." The heart of Margiela's core has always been deconstructionism. Even if the collective design team never identifies themselves as so, its pretty clear to many observers that Maison Margiela, without a doubt, brings life and appreciation to old garments through new perspectives by pulling apart the subject from its core. No longer in production, the Men's artisanal line started in the late 90's with limited pieces each season hand made in France (later Italy) by the Margiela design team. Each piece has a small placard describing the item, its design process and amount of time it took to bring the piece into reality. Due to the laborious and extensive production process of artisanal pieces very few were put into circulation resulting the pieces being preserved in collectors' wardrobes. Men's artisanal pieces have both the "0" and "10" circled on the neck tag with women's only having "0" circled. Each hand painted garment was painted using a particular solution with its own composition and material properties resulting in unique wear-over-time aging. This vintage jacket was painted with a low viscosity, high thickness paint which was washed resulting in most of the leftover paint being clumped up at seams, collar, wrists and other areas where paint buildup was high. Painted pieces from the artisanal line are being replicated and produced today but never came close to the attention of detail of the original artisanal garments. 8/10 condition. Some wear and colour loss at inner neck. Size M fits a classic M. Made in France.$780 -
