A grail's a grail for a reason, right?

I have to find out if it's around first.

To me, anything out of the ordinary or outlandish that I desire is typically out of my price range ($2k+). I figure, if I am going to go for something fantastic, "grail" worthy, hell I want to get the best (in my opinion). It means I will probably only get it if I come into a large sum of money really quickly haha. Otherwise, I don't think I can justify that kind of expense as only a College Student.

But dam. It is just so bad ass awesome. Wearable art. A symbol of a great designer. I would love to rock this in NYC.

Someday...someday...

my face when 999,000yen.


Anyway, that piece would be so difficult to pull off.

Wow, that thing is amazing - very 'New Romantic'.

[Faust]

I dunno about the Napoleon. Amazing piece in itself, of course, but too loud to really wear it out. Maybe if you took off those extra-straps at the shoulders - they are a touch too much.

[Chant]

Everything is too much on this jacket. Worst overdesign ever, and completely unwearable now. Belongs to the museum.

The bottom of this look: belt, pants and especially boots (several pieces on Y!A, but not in 44 which I need. And overpirced as usual).

^that dior photo is one of my favourites of all time. always wanted that puffer jacket, but won't get any use of it in southern CA.

[Servo2000]

You might. I tried on some from that season and they didn't strike me as being especially warm.

[mononon]

^damn, passed on one for a bit under 500 a while back...
