Virginia creeper AW02 Chenille Lettered Jumper
Raf Simons Virginia Creeper Varsity Jumper. From a previous post: A crimson key light, a runway in the vastness of the ominous nowhere woods and a penchant fondness of varsity nostalgia would best describe the Virginia Creeper AW02 season. The eerie, towering figures with muted colours reflect Raf’s observation of the duality of nature. Working in production, the washes of VC are still referenced by designers to this day. Raf's processing/washing in this collection hit just right to capture the worn, run down, faded and discoloured fabric that piles up in barrels in the corners of the United States. Despite used, dirty, old clothes being discarded and considered garbage by the masses, it is rather difficult to replicate the age and natural processing that it goes through. Simons uses an acid wash technique, along with other processing techniques, to replicate this effect, accelerating the fabric to deteriorate over time. However, certain pieces from the collection received different treatment than others, like the item we have available here :). Sold at the Dover Street sample sale many years ago, this Raf Simons jumper is one of the few unique chenille pieces, each with individually different lettering, processed in a burgundy maroon (originally in a red presuming from the stitching). Reading a unique "TS" and colorway, it is very fitting for the client that bought this item, Travis Scott. 48, fits big.$3,400 -
SS02 “Saeko” Longsleeve Button Up
Yohji Yamamoto Pour Homme SS02 Saeko Longsleeve Button Ups. Saeko is a Japanese artist which excels at vintage 60-80s style commercials, paintings and actresses. You've probably seen one or two pieces of her work of beer ads in ramen shops. She passed away soon after her collaboration with Yohji. The vibrant vintage artwork in this sought after collection is processed through crisp sublimation even on organics which yohji has done tremendously well. Hidden snap button placket to that almost seamlessly converges the front graphic Size 2, 7/10.$2,100 -
Multicolor Borderknit Sweater
Stephen Sprouse “S” 88 Multicolor Border Knit Sweater. For this season and a few seasons onward before his bankruptcy, Sprouse utilized his “xerox on xerox” designs which look were a staple in the late 80s and early 90s before it peaked as a cliche in the mid 90s. Stephen Sprouse pioneered his version of the xerox design at the Andy Warhol factory by xeroxing models/figures and creating a collage resembling the look in the advert pictured here featuring the border knit sweater. The hodgepodge presentation of subjects photographed individually in different contexts, yet grouped together by their essence through a curator, with thick borders, filtered photo degradation and accentuated sharpness as a byproduct from xeroxing the same image consecutively were ubiquitous in 90s youth media.

SS17 Nasawi Hand-knit Sweater (Black)
Dries Van Noten Nasawi Handknit Sweater in black. A Multicolor/material knit consisting of silk, linen, cashmere, polyamide, wool, cotton, viscose, paper spun into a clash of colours and materials was featured for the SS17 runway. Due to the complexity of the knits, each item has different details and motifs. Basketweave bottom is haphazardly littered with multiple gauges or sturdiness and materials, some that are elastic with others that are mesh-like accompanied by a more conventional, but subtly complex ribknit top. A notable detail is that the different gauges and yarn weight slightly differ per area allowing for interesting layering options as some areas of the sweater are more transparent than others. 9/10 condition. Small, Oversized.$620 -

SS99 Secret Treasures 3D Floral Tee
Comme Des Garçons Homme Plus SS99 "Secret Treasures" 3D Floral Tee. CDG's reversible clothing is a signature of the label, however SS99 embraces Rei's penchant for dualities. The outdoor runway featured models walking down a flight of stairs and circling a path among the audience in what initially seems to be classic CDGHP silhouettes. As the show continues, the models gradually show the reverse side of their clothing, initially styled in conjunction with other obverse sided clothing, then later fully reverse. The collection features extravagant patterns 'hidden' away inside what seems to be conventional clothing. The tee for sale here is embellished with carefully constructed floral patterns that resemble 3D roses. 7/10 condition. Size M.$250 -
AW02 “Nowhere Man” Vintage Patchwork Long Sleeve
Number (N)ine by Takahiro Miyashita AW02 Patchwork Long Sleeve. Aw02's runway, titled "Nowhere Man", was set in an edwardian themed viewing room assorted with dining chairs and tables. Models slowly sauntered along the catwalk wearing knits, muddy tones, felt hats, wool cardigans revolving around the ethos of The Beatles guitarist George Harrison. This is all a bit irrelevant though as these patchwork shirts weren't featured on the runway. These shirts are all 1 of 1, constructed from a stack of shirts, pieced out and sewn together jointed by a silk braid piping. What we have here is a sz 4, rendering this item quite desirable amongst collectors as these run quite small and lanky. 7/10, mild holes, neck stretching is very common with these shirts. Size 4 fits M-L.$2,450 -
Early 80’s x World’s End Mickey Tee
Today, we bring you three tees, two of which hail from the original mail-order undertaking in 1976, available in a variety of sizes before Seditionaries had their realization in retail stores. With the third being part of the 80’s era when Seditionaries began collaborating and stocking their items in brick and mortar shops of their previous competitor BOY (later Boy London) and their own World’s End. These items range in size, as the made-to-order t-shirts used were famously salvaged by McLaren’s team. The origins of the graphics go far back to 1967, when the satirical magazine “The Realist” published an unsigned cartoon mural by artist Wally Wood, which depicted childhood Disney icons engaged in mass acts of provocative debauchery. Vivienne was fond of this illustration. She reappropriated and to some extent mimicked the subjects on a variety of prints released throughout her involvement with the Seditionaries line. The first tee is the “Snow White & The Sir Punks” graphic. The concept and positions are nearly unchanged from the original, aside from Snow White’s vulva being exposed, the shafts are clearly drawn, and the act depicted leaves little concealed. It was through the printing process that the Seditionaries edge truly shined through, such as the seminal split-fountain treatment utilized on this specific piece which added to the visual detail. The second tee’s graphic portrays Mickey and Minnie engaging in intercourse, which contrary to the Snow White graphic was drastically changed from the Wally Wood’s mural. On the original illustration, Minnie is shown to be conducting a sexual exchange for payment for the character Goofy while Mickey and various other onlookers watch in amusement. On Vivienne’s rendition, major changes are made to Mickey’s attire for instance, which references the seminal punk rock bassist Sid Vicious of the “Sex Pistols.” The Third, made after the original mail order brochure, is of Mickey shooting up heroin. In the same vein as the Snow White graphic, this illustration goes completely unchanged from the original except for the staple Anarchy “A” replacing Mickey’s right ear. Seditionaries was Vivienne’s breakthrough project which laid out the groundwork for the visual language of the Punk fashion movement, which would later be endlessly appropriated. Aside from these “found images,” Malcolm and Vivienne would often outsource graphics from a variety of internationally acclaimed artists such as Jamie Reed – the graphic designer behind the “Sex Pistols.” With the mind of McLaren commercializing punk’s popularity, and Westwood’s penchant for iconoclasm, the duo molded iconic signifiers for the heart of the british punk movement. Staining around neck. Abrasions on hems. Should fit M-L$550 -

Original (Late 70’s) “Destroy” Muslin
Seditionaries "Destroy" Muslin with swastika print This particular “Destroy” muslin dates back to the late 70’s, and was only available in the UK via mail order for 9.5 British Pounds. This era of the Seditionaries tag is widely considered by collectors to be the key identifier for the original run, as many items during this time were exclusively produced under made-to-order requests. There were many variations of these muslins that were adorned with homosexual acts, pornographic novelizations of children’s cartoons, defaming political figures, child pornography (depicted as “censored”), nazi imagery, some of which are shown on the next slide. The narrative to incorporate provocative graphics were rooted in Vivienne Westwood’s convictions with freedom of expression, as wearing such imagery at that time ran the risk of imprisonment. Fits an S-M. Snaps at collars broke and are pinned with safety pins. Immense amount of distressing. Stains from metal corrosion. Back flap torn.$1,040 -
FW11 “Decadence” Reconstructed Patchwork Silk Button Up
Comme Des Garcons Homme Plus FW11 "Decadence" Reconstructed Patchwork Silk Button Up. Rei Kawakubo's FW11 runway for men was a cultural nightmare criss-crossing and connecting references to points there should be no business of having a connection to. Each model wore a crudely placed wig on top, everything below was a Pollock of Chinese patterned silks, English mad hatter silhouettes, Japanese hakamas, Vegas prints. That being said, despite the lack of any real definable signifier to process there seems to be a gravitating harmony in Rei's pursuit to find beauty in the ugly which she triumphs time and time again. Tees and button ups from this collection were reconstructed from vintage tees and silk scarves and button ups respectively. Each item is unique including its flaws, quality of silk, graphics and print. 8.5/10 condition, some flaws at the bottom right panel. Sz S, fits long, fits slim S-M.$450 -
Puffer Button Up Shirt
Carol Christian Poell Sample Puffer Shirt. Enigmatic artisan CCP is a revered, established designer even outside of the 'avant-garde' dark fashion circle it was originally associated with in the mid 2000's. Poell's individuality and intricate design techniques outshined and more importantly outlived visually similar labels that had more singular gritty narratives which arguably shared some aesthetic principles with CCP. The respect for the designer is well praised, ubiquitously, by creatives, critics and connoisseurs alike for his zealously conceptual approach to challenging fashion design's norms, as if the execution to said challenges came naturally to him. Growing up in leather trade and a scholar tailor, CCP is involved in every step of his design process from fabrics, to dye processing, to even the 'marketing' where he displays his work only when he deems necessary. Diffident to interviews, independent from trends, meticulous in his design approach, CCP is a master at his craft and a slave to nothing. Puffer shirt is stuffed with synthetic insulation similar to those in some puffer jackets. Mellow tangerine dyed, as with many CCP pieces, has a murkiness with beautiful dynamic color range. Cut Slim 9/10 condition. Sz 48 fits close to chest medium.$600 -
Tom Ford Era Hand Painted Floral Camp Shirt
Gucci by Tom Ford SS02 or SS03 Hand Painted Floral Camp Shirt. Tom Ford hand painted florals serve as a cornerstone for Gucci designs by Michele today.

Models were bare-chested or lightly clothed, overshadowed by detailed silk robes. Camp shirt shown here is a modest rendition of Gucci's floral designs on the runway, resembling some of the chipper and vibrant designs Gucci adopted in the early 00's. 7.5/10 condition. Bleach marks on the inside of the collar which aren't shown when worn. Mild Blemishes. Sz S but fits wide and rather large for small, best for a medium.$400 -

Said designs distance themselves as far away from the crude and inexactness displayed from reconstructed garments by other designers. Despite Margiela's reconstructed garments, bags and accessories are decades old and yet, still inspires creatives and designers presently, the meticulous approach to MMM's designs render them easily distinguishable from the sea of copycats.

Yohji Yamamoto Pour Homme Silk/Rayon Floral Open Collar Shirt. 98-01? Spring Summer Yohji when the Japanese house revisited the floral obsession it had in the early 90's and late 80's.

SS06 “Icaris Surgit” Long Weave Top
Raf Simons SS06 "Icaris Surgit" Long Weave Top. Simons throughout his golden decade never really had a consistent trajectory when it comes to his creative narrative, but yet managed to excel at every corner he touched. At the near end of his aggressive, youth inspired era which derived strong motifs from the awkward menace of adolescence, Raf Simons's "Icaris Surgit" drew inspiration from Greek mythological figure Icarus. Fabrics were light, airy and swayed with the lightest touch of wind. Sheer, laser-cut and thin cloths were cut into large silhouettes and oversized cummerbund pants. Footwear was shaped and worked into strapped messes resembling gladiator sandals. SS06 was the start of Raf's technical prowess and continued such endeavors throughout the remainder of the decade. Top is a three tier design with two of the three tiers emulating a crotched weave. Intricate detailing of colours are weaved into the mix. Size 44, but fits very oversized. 9/10 condition. Can be layered over other tops.$500 -

SS13 “Lincoln Trojans” Reverse Embroidered Tee
Maison Martin Margiela "Lincoln Trojans" Reverse Embroidered Tee. A throwback to the original reverse embroidered trojans longsleeve from 2005 with some mild detail adjustments.

FW06 “Forget Me Not” Navy Tee
Dior Homme by Hedi Slimane FW06 "Forget Me Not" Tee in Navy. FW06 was a different turn for Hedi, mostly focusing on the elegant, dapper-tuxedo vibe and toying with ultra formal looks. Most runway looks had cummerbunds, open collars and fabrics with plenty of sheen. A surprising shift in silhouette. Less skinny jeans and more loose slacks, with the exception of the popular "cummerbund" denim which saw first light in FW06. Possibly one of the more conceptual collections from slimane, which is rather unlikely of him.$100Shirt features the “Forget Me Not” graphic which was featured on jewlery, polos, hoodies and so on for FW06.

09 Final “Last Say Goodbye” Departure Tee
Number (N)ine "Last Say Goodbye" tee which marked legendary designer Takihiro Miyashita's departure from Number (N)ine. Presently, Miyashita is very reserved and distant if asked about Number (N)ine but there are a few past interviews regarding his departure in which he pours he heart out. "WWD Magazine" featured a lengthy interview right before the designer left his own label. Takahiro Miyashita reflected on his label as a "band" that has ran out of songs to play. In 2006 Miyashita featured a collection that surrounded Axl Rose as a complete joke or as he quoted "a show like Andy Kuafman would pull". He wanted to startle the audience and make them laugh. The models were suited with jackets without shirts underneath, shorts and tight half length leggings. To Miyashita's disappointment critics took it dead seriously, his audience took Number (N)ine in a direction which drifted afar from his own vision and he felt disconnected from a brand he brought to life. Takahiro Miyashita saw the distant demise of N(N) from 2007 collection's "About A Boy". Number (N)ine's "outro" consisted of, as he put it, a "B side" fw2009 and "A side" ss/fw2008 for his final "Exit Album". Miyashita crafted these final collections without consideration for monetary gain. Passion was the fuel which formed these extravagant and intricate collections. Noguchi Tsuyoshi, Number (N)ine's primary stylist for every collection, told WWD that he simply "watched him run" before Miyashita put Number (N)ine to rest. But still, Takahiro Miyashita's guitar gently weeps. The Soloist was born years later continuing the man's legacy. Pockets stitched throughout. Graphic on back and front. 8/10 condition. Size 2 fits S-M.$155 -

Point collar, cross twill, classic fitted button up with a white panel applique on back.

SS03 “Consumed” White Tank
“Today’s living environment is about consuming as well as being consumed; some suggest this could lead to an apocalyptic end, while others, particularly younger generations, take this reality as their cue to create new, more viable and flexible personas.” - Raf Simons Show Notes. Raf Simons SS03 "Consumed" Tank in the white colourway. SS03 is one of Raf's more well received collections by the "graphics" type of Raf collectors and possibly the most iconic. As the passage from the show notes above states, this is Raf's introspective dive into his interpretation of consumerism and identity with younger generations. Slapped on the tank is the 'consumed' graphic which was inked on the chests of some of the runway models with familiar commercial logos. This is a much looser tank compared to his more common ultraslim fitted tanks. 8/10 condition. Size 48 and fits true, slightly loose. Fits an L fitted.$352 -
SS14 “GODOG” Self-Titled Shirt
Undercover's SS14 revolved around lyrics + ethos from a few post punk/rock bands including Jesus and the Mary Chain and The Savages. The opening manifesto for the runway featured a small lyrical passage from The Savages: "The world used to be silent/Now it has too many voices/And the noises are constant distraction/They multiply, intensify." One of the key design elements for the women's collection was word play. Garments sported words such as "Insult/Sunlit" "Listen/Silent" "Noise/Thoughts" and the collection's title "God/Dog". Some of the wordplay was rather political while others were mildly intriguing with the remaining few being fun anagrams. 100% cotton Tee with graphic, undercover title at bottom and collection title slightly below that. 8/10 condition. Sz 2 Fits a small.$70$51 -

SS15 “Koi” Extended Silhouette LongSleeve
Raf Simons SS15 Extended Silhouette Longsleeve. One of the more graphic heavy recent seasons by Raf is a peep into his past memories.

FW15 Stitch Knot & Pull Rayon Longsleeve
Craig Green FW15 "A Silent Protest" Knot/Tied Rayon LongSleeve.

FW15 is around the time Green received strong appraise from critics kickstarting his recognition by fashion enthusiasts. The collection, like many of his current works, featured color coded fits, extravagant layers of loose fabric flowing freely, and was as much as a display of beautiful storytelling as Green's technical prowess. 100% Rayon shirt, with one sleeve knotted, main body knotted and back knotted.

Iconic Virginia Creeper logo in the front and back. Garment stops spot on at waist and hangs loose on shoulders. Size 50. Fits M-L.$1,600 -
FW97 Double Breast Button Up
Carol Christian Poell FW97 Double Breasted Button Up. CCP is the most well recognized artisan/avant-garde designer to date, excelling at both innovative designs and masterful craftsmanship.

Colour of the fabric is a dark wine/burgandy colour, making it pop out but easier to contrast with other articles of clothing.

Around this Dior Era, Hedi was in deep connection with his music and created a visual concoction; what figureheads of the 80s and 90s sported during tour, rockstars who shared their wives' wardrobes, and those aspiring glamrockers that scoured through thrift stores for the most ostentatious outfits. 7/10 condition. Size S.$105 -
7-cut Ribbon Flannel
Nerpenthes's Needles 7-Cut Ribbon Flannel. Featuring multiple Woodland Flannels cut & strung together then stitched folded on the sides of the placket. Needles reconstruction is one of the house's strongest suits and is also well exemplified outside of their flannels with the "Rebuild" line. However, this model continues to take the throne in terms of popularity. The patched fabric on the placket seems to be a key visual element that's appealing to the eye to others but yet easy to wear casually for the wearer. 8.5/10 condition. The woodland flannel is marked an "M", but the needles tag is marked "XS". Best suited for a loose S or a fitted slim M.$200 -

Number (N)ine classic mickey tee from the earlier "OG" era of Takahiro Miyashita.

This version is widely sought after as its the origin of the popular Mickey Tee reprints today. 100% Cotton. Two under-arm holes. Produced ~2000. 8/10 condition. Rare Size 4 but I believe this shirt is shrunken a bit and better fits a medium.$125 -

SS2003 Consumed Shirt
“Today’s living environment is about consuming as well as being consumed; some suggest this could lead to an apocalyptic end, while others, particularly younger generations, take this reality as their cue to create new, more viable and flexible personas.” - Raf Simons Show Notes. Probably one of the most iconic pieces from Raf Simons -- The "Consumed" Button Up in white on black as displayed on the runway. This piece deserves some explanation especially as there's little of it despite the interest surrounding it today. The button up, to bluntly put it, graphically exemplifies "Consumed", the entire season and its creative foundations, as the above show note statement suggests. More so it resembles the "tattooed" model also carrying similar corporate graphics which was a strong highlight for Raf's show. And as with all of Raf's work, inspired and continues to inspire Men's fashion/youth amongst creators, enthusiasts and the like. Ashley Bickerton's work was also featured in the 2003 Consumed season as well. Matte and coated fabric. Sunlight does not shine through this. The graphics are also matted and coated and have a distinct texture to them.

Sz 52 and fits anywhere from M-XXL comfortably.$255 -
~90 Signature Dog Button Up
Around 1990 or so Yohji Yamamoto Button Up possibly from the "S" collection. Yohji garments rarely have graphics on them (until very recently) making this button up very special. Not only so, Yohji has been fond of putting dogs on clothing for some time. Its almost a staple Yohji habit at this point. The new ground Y and 2015 collection that revisits older Yohji garments also features "Rin" the dog and multiple iterations of Rin were peppered throughout collections in past years. This shirt is one of the few original garments featuring an unnamed Aichi dog and one of the very few self titled graphics. 8/10 condition. There are no stains but wash tags and size have been removed, "3" is written on the tag to indicate size so it may be a sample however side by side comparisons of the same shirt show no difference. Fair to fit an oversized medium or better for a loose large.$557$450 -
“Waves” FW04 “Exiles” Tee
Raf Simons "Waves" Tee from FW04.

Purely exemplifies the ominous Yohji, his emerging connection to the art world and the best of his recent graphic work. New with tags. Size 3, fits an oversized M-L perfectly. -
SS17 “Modern Future” Border Crewneck
Gucci SS17 back embroidered "Modern Future" Crewneck. "Modern Future" was a slogan used throughout SS17 and the words were plastered on bags, sweats and jackets. Even Alessandro Michele really didn't resonate with the words so I'm guessing it has something to do with the season's retro theming and romantic clash of garments from a myriad of cultures... which makes it futuristic? Gucci tends to introduce a lot of these words without context or reason, perhaps it may be some kind of abstract language that resonates with wearers that relate to the text, who knows. It may be an ironic play on garments that just throw words on clothing for the textual design aspect. Whatever it means Alessandro Michele is Definitely the "future" for Gucci as he continues to blur the line between men's and women's runway. New with tag. Size M$400 -
Faded Tom Ford Western Button Up

neo boy, neo boy, neo boy,
neo boy melts in jelly machine,
the whole thing is how he can change the scene or be a changeling,
transformation is relative says neo boy.
tropical plants shiver.
what can you say about habitat that hasn’t been said before?
greedy children lap up radioactive jewels spit in the dunes by these so-called know-it-alls.
soon the gleaming bones of innocents will be scattering the sands and some enterprising old soul will gather them up in an old leather bag and sell them to a contact.
some kinda contact.
some kinda roman woman or some kinda bird head.
Someone will come,
a beautiful though thoughtless,
childless shrew who will rearrange the bones with all the discreet adoration of a Japanese boy adjusting his weapon.
neo boy.
he dons,
he dons his bird head,
he dons his bird face mask and plucks up a sharp metal star and cuts a new scene from a sheet of copper.
what can you say about habitat that hasn’t been said again?
we take these pieces of paper.
these precious sheets.
we bend them into birds and we fill the illiterate…
8/10 condition, there's very mild cracking of the graphic. Sz 2.
