this thread gonna be good.

Whenever I see a new label get talked about I think "Maybe I should start only wearing this label"

[Syeknom]

Oh wow, this is super cool

Reductionist approach to clothing details and obsession with fabric design gets me all hot and bothered

pic on the right is soooo lovely

Argh the vertical ribbing or whatever on those sweaters and arms is so beautiful. Tyft, just really, really good stuff all around. Kinda wanna stop saving money and spend it all on her. It's pretty cool that she only does menswear.

[germinal]

yeah this is where i see most of my clothing budget going for the foreseeable future

will try and keep this updated with any new images or articles that crop up, probably won't be any for a while though

i'll take pics of my stuff when i'm back in london

[Syeknom]

Do want to see them!

WAYWT picture by user Platypus (is he the owner of Suspension Point?) from superfuture. Pier Wu jacket:

some of these are reposts but who cares

[can-]

need pix of her brand and care tags

[Syeknom]

We need a thread for that, was thinking to start one

Seems right given the forum's name

[germinal]

[germinal]

bump

have exchanged some emails with peir, she's really down-to-earth
things we have talked about:

london buses
Louise Bourgeois
"used future"
Isamu Noguchi
shanghai
interior design/"tailored space[s]"
Eileen Gray
Light and Space
visiting her studio
and the prospect of an online shop!

shall get some more pics in here when i have time

[sknss]

damn great themes.

what is used future?

[germinal]

Used Future is a trope in sci-fi, mostly films, where the world depicted isn't all gleaming and new (like in Gattaca or Star Trek), but run-down and, well, used, whilst still being all high-tech and futuristic. Think Blade Runner and Star Wars and Alien. Makes more sense seeing as we live in a used present.

[bels]

just shooting the shit with peir wu w/e.

????

Did you tell her we have a thread about her

[germinal]

yeah i linked her

[can-]

my future fantasy is pretty similar to a 'used' future I think. a world where everyone has a pip boy and phasers set to stun but still wearing dads old jordans and super faded clothes etc. futuristic but still very much in the middle of modern scarcity.

this fantasy combines all three of my favorite things-- 90s baggy streetwear, my dads old clothes and modern but military styled techwear.

germz when is your laser knit coming in?

[germinal]

apparently it's en route

hmm there's a styleforum thread now http://www.styleforum.net/t/359011/peir-wu/0_40
compare & contrast

[Syeknom]

This thread is cooler and ahead of the curve.

Nice for Peir to get more attention though.

[germinal]

[sknss]

went to see an exhibition about her in like 2008 and it was very intense.

her marble sclupture Cumul I has stuck with me


the stone is very shiny so it looks like the heads(?) are moving. some see phallic forms, some see nuns under white veils. i think she said they were rather clouds. it looks completely alien indeed, just like the giant spider Maman. the classic themes (sexuality, metamorphosis) coupled with ancient materials (marble and bronze) contrast strongly with her modern ideas... that may be why her work is so hard to place in time

i'd like to hear smiles about this

[germinal]

The new season Suspension Point buy is pretty nice, i bought a pair of trousers and could have been talked into buying another pair and a couple of coats and a scarf and a top. It's not online yet and i'm not allowed to post pics but it's good stuff.
Anyway that'll be on it's way soon along with my jumper (at long last) and a free shirt thing to make up for the jumper taking so long lol
