You seriously take the fun out of it when you number each picture and critique each jacket or pant. God, how lame. I love a well dressed man, but if I knew behind closed doors he was fussing over his clothes like a little bitch we wouldn't be going out on a second date.<br /><br />...and I have to agree with the above comment. The lack of class is appalling. Either way, this is one of my favorite blogs.

The r...I agree, there are a couple of unique items. The red shawl DJ, sure. But angling the zipper is enough to make it a standout? Hardly. Let's look at the photos one by one...<br /><br />1. Apart from the weird panelled green sweater, straight out of UO.<br />2. As previously noted, the sweater has a nice motif.<br />3. J Crew.<br />4. Sweatpants and an overcoat. My dad has those. He just doesn't were 'em together. So the difference is in the styling.<br />5. Embroidered chinos: see BB and Rugby for at least the past 3 years. The orange gilet is nice, but I'm a sucker for anything orange. Mine's from Orvis about 5 years go.<br />6. Rugby.<br />7. Tweed bomber jacket is nice but hardly unique.<br />8. Is just a mess but if you wanted to you could pull this together at J Crew.<br />9. A red anorak and brown cords.<br />10. I'll concede, that cardigan is unusual.<br />11. Camelhair blazer + camo + jeans. BB x Orvis x J Crew.<br />12. Nothing special here.<br />13. Sweater by Thom Brown, Sportcoat by Bookster.<br />14. Rugby.<br />15. The North Face (although it looks as if that piece has some kind of tail at the back which might make it interesting)<br />16. Levi's.<br />17. DB blazer are everywhere. Camo ditto.<br />18. Oh yes, the angled zipper. <br />19. Gray tweed is not new. The pocket square is fun, and the layering is nice. Again, that's the styling, not the clothes.<br />20. Agreed, this I have not seen before.<br /><br />Granted, the cut will be better than the mass-market retailers. And the quality of fabric and construction also. They better be, given the respective price points. But in terms of imagination, in terms of LOOKS, I respectfully stick to my case. This show has great styling but the clothes do not move the needle.PeacockMagpiehttp://peacockmagpie.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895647038898538515.post-63781739884191032422011-02-19T07:41:19.972-05:002011-02-19T07:41:19.972-05:00The styling is actually very important.

If they would be selling eyewear or footwear then yeah the styling of the clothes is not that important but here it's key. And I don't really care for this styling, it's silly and a little bit ridiculous to be honest. They look like trendy fashion victims. I strive to know and own my classics and yes I go along with trends and like trends but to a certain degree. I'm not a woman.<br /><br />Some of the pieces look great. Flannel suit: no brainer, puffer jacket looks cool but the zipper is too fashiony, navy double breasted coat is cool, dinner jacket nice. But the eyecatchers are too forced.The Striking Fellownoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895647038898538515.post-49760276666988655962011-02-19T00:32:53.748-05:002011-02-19T00:32:53.748-05:00Fab!Fab!My Affair with Michael Bastianhttp://affairwithmb.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895647038898538515.post-50092809727540576492011-02-19T00:02:29.286-05:002011-02-19T00:02:29.286-05:00Nit picking about styling when you like the actual...Nit picking about styling when you like the actual pieces is kind of pointless. I don't like the way Junya sends some looks down the runway, that doesn't mean I pan the whole collection. <br /><br />Comparing Rugby to Gant by MB is like comparing...never mind, it's just real dumb. <br /><br />Bringing up brands like J.Crew and Club Monaco is kind of a weak argument. One, I guarantee the cut/fit is totally different. Two, it's not even accurate. When have you seen either of these brands do a red shawl collar dinner jacket? Or the sweaters? The asymmetrical zipper on the blue puffer? <br /><br />I'm all for a critique, but come on. At least actually look at the pieces.Fuck Your Couchhttp://fuckyourcouchson.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895647038898538515.post-13446102804790908882011-02-18T23:34:32.958-05:002011-02-18T23:34:32.958-05:00I mean, I read the article and all but, what the f...I mean, I read the article and all but, what the fuck were you saying?

And looking just at the clothes, there's nothing very different from the humdrum Club Monaco/J Crew/Urban Outfitters stuff we see everyday. The cardinal sweater? Sure, a nice twist on the traditional norwegian sweater, but Ralph/Rugby has been cranking those out for a couple of seasons already.PeacockMagpiehttp://peacockmagpie.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895647038898538515.post-40411929610336189762011-02-18T20:09:45.671-05:002011-02-18T20:09:45.671-05:00Trifecta sleeve roll.Trifecta sleeve roll.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895647038898538515.post-21993968022242669322011-02-18T16:38:59.558-05:002011-02-18T16:38:59.558-05:00The styling is awful, i've seen better styling...The styling is awful, i've seen better styling at the gap or club monaco for crying out loud.
