Raf Simons Rick Owens usually what I'm dressed in
Kanye because hes my favorite rapper/producer and now my favorite designer

ACRNM x2
>PLAY Commes des Garcons because of the youthful, yet still sophisticated and simplistic aesthetic of their shirts.
>Supreme because of the influence it has on the youth and its streetwear and skater blend.

Tom Ford and Ralph Lauren.
Tom Ford has an understanding of menswear and masculinity that I genuinely like quite a bit. I've pretty much never seen a suit he's made that I didn't like or see something I liked in, which is rare. His womenswear is also nice from what I've seen, but I have a limited eye for that sorta thing.
Ralph Lauren I like as sort of a fallen angel. He took Americana and did some fucking amazing things with it back in the day - it was a direction that I feel took the Brooks Brothers idea to the next level, far away from the stodginess that Brooks still can't shake. Problem is he's kinda let that fall apart as the brand is constantly subdivided and moved into various markets - Polo Ralph Lauren is barely tolerable, RLX and RRL and their derivatives are absolute horseshit. I kinda only like Ralph Lauren in theory nowadays.

Sk8thing because its a mix of interesting, cool pictures with actual tailoring, rather than just slapping them on a gildean tshirt
The guy who designed Issey Miyake Men ss16 because he's not afraid to use color or colorful prints. This is ignoring the fantastic silhouettes of the items and general 'chill' theme he has.

I love Tom Ford's thinking of how something should look and the idea of fashion changing when the world's changing. I just watched a documentary and he is one interesting guy.
Hedi, slp because it's for me the perfect amount of androgyny mixed with some California beach punk which I love. It's fashionable but still normie. At dior he had such a large influence on fashion in general it was insane.
Rick or Anne d. I actually wear Anne but I have a huge amount of respect for Rick. I like my designers to design for themselves and their ideal world. Rick is so immersed in his designs his clothes feel like they are just an extension of his personality.

ccp cause its designed by the devil, comme des garcons because its designed by a crazy japanese woman
Saint Laurent, because I fit the body type they style after, and it is a good mix of Parisian left-bank traditions with grungy modernity.
Norse Projects because it's basic, comfortable, and not too expensive. Also everything I have from them is good quality.
Another thing – now I'm returning after a while just to check it out, this board has gone to shit.
issey miyake and yohji, both for their focus on silhouettes

>taking the b8
>>10718842
Yeah dammit that was obvious b8 I'm an idiot.
Jona Sees because textures.
Iris van Herpen because technologies.
>>10718657
You've got Ann D. garments yet you still misspell her name twice?
>>10718877
if you like Jona Sees for textures, i think you might like Daniel Andresen.
I saw his collection in a boutique a while back, the fabrics and construction was amazing.
It's like Jan Jan van Essche, but a little bit more affordable.
>>10718890

Raf
John Galliano
Helmut Lang or Yohji as runner ups

Ann gets autocorrected to Anne on my phone for some reason
Daiki Suzuki and Hiroki Nakamura. Both have such an incredible eye for detail. I love being able to explore a garment as I wear it and discover features I did not know about. And I just love the quality materials used by both designers.
Acronym - Because it looks cool
Gosha Rubchinskiy - Because Russian soul, man
Jun Takahashi
I love everything he's done.
Rei Kawakubo
CDG is rad.
Patrik Ervell because I like normcore
Dries van Noten is a fucking genius, everything he does is amazing.
Raf has some great shows, and is probably the most artistic designer alive, but his ready to wear is sketchy.
Rick's shows go back and forth in my mind between genius and idiocracy, his ready to wear is a lot better than Raf's though.
Hedi has created my favorite aesthetic out of all four, but lacks the originality ever since leaving Dior.
KVA is also really underrated
But yeah overall I'd say Dries
