>Any questions, or ideas how to improve the OP?
Yes: Stop dividing generals up based off pricing. It's a retarded way to make a general thread.
General threads are devoted to things like leather boots, tees, Rick stuff, prep stuff - not all of those different things in one thread based off the prices. The topic is simply extremely wide and extremely shallow.
If I see one more
>that belongs in the Medium Price Thread because it's too expensive
then I swear to God...
What do you guys think of JW Anderson?
>>10692368
I don't know man, I feel the Expensive Footwear thread worked quite well and helped a few people resolve their queries.
If you put all the price classes in one thread, you'll get people talking cross purposes, because cheap-shoe-buyers aren't interested in expensive shoes, and vice versa.
I don't see how he got the British fashion award for MENS.
This piece is p. cool tho.
Or this fit. Looks like early 90s.
Sales on luisaviaroma have started btw.

if rick represents a dystopian future i think these would represent quite the opposite
>>10692406
I'm pragmatic
We'll see how it turns out
I'll might change my mind
Opinions on Givenchy ss16?
Looking to preorder something before it gets sold out again.
Or this neoprene sweat from Neil Barrett?

Where can I get Converse for cheap?

???
Nobody talks about or buys Ann, Dries, Kenzo, Margiela (WTF???), VW (WTF AGAIN???) here.

At the Lenny store, see: ᘳ ͡°╭͜ʖ╮ ͡°ᘰ

That's really cool. How did you make that?
>revolve clothing
>expensive
Since when? Last I checked, they sell mall-tier brands.
The list is missing Tres Bien, Lentrian, and Cruvoir.
>>10692626
Huh? I bought some Kenzo last week and own Margiela shoes.
tfw too poor to own expensive clothing so I window shop all day and save cool things I see
>>10692794
Find something better to do with your time anon - maybe even earn some money, then come back when you have money. Fashion is 90% money and 10% taste.
>>10692626
Thats just a general guide m8, gives you a good idea of what is discussed.
I remember a few months back we had some pretty neat discussion on peir wu, JJVE, siki im and the like
>>10692794
Work/save up and start lurking japanese auction sites. I wouldn't have had nice things otherwise. Also sometimes grailed has decent deals
>>10692600
same stuff he does like every season, but Neil Barrett is the only neoprene I've handled that I don't hate
>>10692374
His men's doesn't really appeal to me, but the stuff he's done in women's/at Loewe is great
>>10692561
Never been a huge fan but Jesus prints/patchwork could be cool
Make yourself useful and add the sales guide I created for the high fashion general to the OP because I think thats one of the biggest reasons why people are so scared of buying high fashion items. They dont realize how piss easy it is to exploit sales.

Should I spend 340 dollar on premium raw produced in Japan sewn in Norway Denim Jeans?
I mean its tempting
>>10695334
Thank you senpai, it was added. I knew of your sales guide, just thought it would be better if we had seperate sales threads. I still do, but there seem to be people here who like expensive clothes but can't quite afford them, so it's a good idea to include it anyway.

Julius and Company are more so dystopian future
Rick is for the aliens
