Is it not on the site yet? What trousers did you order?

[germinal]

Not yet. i bought some slim black wool trousers... they're kind of boring but if they're anything like my other pair then they'll be more impressive in person. There are these cool grey, cropped, tapered trousers with zips on the hem and velcro waist adjusters that i was tempted by, but seeing as her studio is several thousand miles nearer than SP i figured i can wait.
There's also this awesome black parka, with temperature-regulating thermal lining; a double-face fleece climbing jacket; a phenomenal lapel-less overcoat with hidden zip and pockets, really elegant; a scarf with the same applique as the jumpers and a couple of other pieces.

[Syeknom]

That overcoat sounds pretty lovely, interested to see it.

Get some photos of the stuff when it turns up!

[bels]

I'm interested in black parkas

[teck]

germ how did you start talking to her? just email through a website or something?

really impressed actually at how nicely these pieces are translating onto "real" bodies. the ribbed/pleated (?) shirt is stunning.

how are we seeing a "used future" in this, however? honest question

[can-]

I want to know more about the parka. is it wool? long in the back? do I want it?

[germinal]

[bels]

I'd be interested if it was long like a fshtail but I guess if not eh.

I have thermore in my Aspesi. Seems like good stuff. It kept me warm down to about -4. I recall in the brutal winter of 2k12/13 I felt cold once or twice in the morning. And it works pretty ok in autumnal temperatures too.

Everytime I see this thread:

[germinal]

only just saw ss14 lookbook is up:















i notice the website also now has a press section that wasn't present until i linked her to this thread lol

[Syeknom]

Oh wow, some lovely stuff here. That coat is unbelievable as are the jumpers.

Love the photo with the model cracking up

[bels]

That stuff looks very cool actually. Especially like the long coats (obviously) but the materials actually look pretty summer wearable too.

[Syeknom]

Definitely an all-year feel to this

That bottom-most left picture is ace - cropped, high rise trousers with a short jumper that hugs the chest and arms but drapes out a bit. Really stunning.

[midvh]

i don't know what to say
this is amazing

a lot of this would suit ridiculously well with what i'm wearing/aiming for

[odradek]

would wear all this but with dirty white vans.

love that patchwork long coat with the 3/4 pants, been looking for that shape of pants that feels "right" for a while

[Syeknom]

How are the trousers, germ?

[can-]

yah what a tease

[germinal]

[Syeknom]

[bels]

Is she dissing RAF or supreme with the skate culture comment

[odradek]

i immediately thought of HBA's show with the skaters

[maj]

cross seasonal is something i am fully behind, that and the idea of technical fabrics. really good read.

[germinal]

where are the new photos syek i don't see them

i read the skater thing as a dig at yang li

"cross-seasonal" and "technical fabrics" are such buzzwords (and i'm so jaded) at this point that i find it easy to be sceptical. i'm planning on going to her studio when she's back from shanghai though; i really want to handle this thermore stuff / see what's up.

[Syeknom]

Ah I'm wrong, read a comment on styleforum about it but it's stuff we've already seen (AW13-14).

Her studio's over by the olympic stadium?

[Syeknom]

Peir is in good company

[ballast]

hello, this is what i came here to see. i've been admiring Peir Wu for a year now and finally scraped the money to pick up some of her latest collection. the fabrics are definitely super-nice once you get to feel them, unfortunately i have to send the pair of pants i picked up back due to sizing issues. really curious to see the pants you have, germinal and a close-up of the materials/details.
