If anything, the hem selvedge would be the easiest to construct to have as it means you just have a pretty even width sheet of denim. Having selvedge running up the leg seams would require more utilization of the edges of the fabric bolt with potentially more waste of the non-selvedge denim in the center portion of the bolt.www.AlbertHuangMD.com - Digital Portfolio Of Projects & Designs

late Lunch:
to the first part: It is perfectly possibly to worship our gods without sublty berating the gods of other men. Let every man be at peace at his own altar
Is the Jeans even a LUC piece or is it just a part of an ensemble with the jacket being LUC?
to the second part: Yes selvedge jeans does come like that, or better yet every fabric has a Self-Edge
Its just that Selvedge jeans is traditionally narrower in width than regular jeans fabric .
On this particular piece is seems to me the selvedge piece is added to finish the hem with a seam (not visible in the pic). my reason for saying that is the selvedge hem finish is running on a different grain thanof the pant and as stitch to achieve that it had to be cut away and stitched on“You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”

but that aside the non selvage parts dont really go to waste, they are often used on things like denim jackets, pocket facing waistbands and other non leg parts“You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”

Agreed on the 1st bit .. & am educated on the width , thought they were traditionally made on vintage machines which could not weave such large widths.
YEs they are LUC jeans
But I dunno about that Z , You know how madman genius crazy Luca is re his patterns , his whole shtick is the process & the result and finding new ways to do it. Just look at the no top seam pants a super painstaking task & totally unnecessary but the final outcome looks amazing.
I cannot believe for a second he would cheat by adding a piece to finish the hem , these jean legs are one piece!

The latter. I mean, none of them are technically t-shirts as they are all knit and not cut-and-sew. That fabric combo is a serious winner. I want everything in it.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

Yeah sure, is not a jersey overlocked. And is 'cause of this that I don't understand the difference between what is called "sweater" and what is called "t-shirt" LS. Anyway, I'm in love with a blue 70% cachemire and 30% silk. :D
Thank you Faust!

some stores can do it for you but it can take a few months, and it depends on the piece too as some are not possible to make anymore for various reasons. hide-m is the first place I would ask."AVANT GUARDE HIGHEST FASHION.
