/JDG/ is a place to discuss general Japanese designer fashion from designers such as Yohji Yamamoto, Rei Kawakubo and Junya Watanabe (Comme des Garcons), Issey Miyake, Takahiro Miyashita (TheSoloist and Number (N)ine), Tatsuro Horikawa (Julius), Jun Takahashi (Undercover), and such. Note that we do not allow discussion of Y3 and CdG Play.
===========================================================
GENERAL DESIGNER INFO:
>How do Japanese designers size?
For pants, japanese designers generally have a size range. It's size 28-30 for S, 30-32 for M, and 32-34 for L. XL and XS sizes are harder to come by.
For tops, its 1 for XS, 2 for S, 3 for M, 4 for L, and 5 for XL.
As always when buying online, ask the seller for measurements and
>Where can I buy these?
Generally, its recommended to buy items directly from Japan via a proxy as they are much cheaper there (excluding shipping fees) and release exclusive stuff there. Yahoo JP and Rakuten are used for this.
SPECIFIC DESIGNER INFO:
COMME DES GARCONS
>What are the lines of CDG?
CDG has two main lines - the ones designed by Rei and the ones by Junya. Wikipedia has a good reference for each lines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comme_des_Gar%C3%A7ons#Comme_des_Gar.C3.A7ons_lines
An important note is that for Junya, if it doesn't say Junya Watanabe MAN, it's for women.
>How does CDG size?
CDG mainline stuff generally skews oversized but it is not typically oversized. As with any brand, ask the seller for measurements.
YOHJI YAMAMOTO INFO:
See the Yohji Yamamoto write up on StyleForum: http://www.styleforum.net/t/280641/yohji-or-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-looser-fit-yohji-yamamoto-thread

For anyone looking for fragrance suggestions, give as much information as possible about what you want. Helpful info could include price range, climate/season, need (work/clubbing/etc.), notes/families you like/dislike, and other perfumes you've tried and liked/disliked.
I want to get some real Avant-Garde scents.
Any suggestions?

re: Diptyque, their EdT and EdP versions of a scent perform about the same as one another so that shouldn't be too much of an issue. The main differences are that their EdPs are usually richer scents. With Philosykos, the EdP is more focused on the fruit side of fig, sweeter, a bit creamy; the EdT is more green and fresher, more about the fig tree.
How do I get rid of acne completely? I'm not sure if I want to take Acutane due to possible side effects though, so any other advices sempais?
>>11333863
If you take Accutane then make sure your doc approves it everytime its supposed to be. Which is every month or so.
I haven't taken it in like 3 weeks because she hasn't done it yet. I'm afraid that all the progress I've had will go away.
accutane will kill you senpai dont do it
>>11333863
took acutane for abt a year it made my skin super dry but burts bees for lips and good lotion will cover it. its been about two years and i havent broken out since, its awesome. it takes time to see the progress but i highly recommend it

share tips to look better, both with plastic and without.
>>11337133
how to look better: have some confidence and don't fucking put legos on your face anon
Personally, I'll be fixing my chin, which is receded badly. Then I will lose a lot of weight, I am already in a healthy weight, but I will lose a couple of kilos more combined with eating less sugar&carbs (because they bloat your face). Then I will also maybe go on a light test cycle when I lift to get a more manly face.
work out
plastic surgery is the ultimate form of degeneracy
"Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple."
laggards need not apply.
straight jeans are ok as well like dickies no less than 7 inch leg opening though
