TIE DYE

GIRBAUD REBOOT
/CIRCA 2004. THE EUROPE COLLECTION OF MARITHÈ & FRANÇOIS GIRBAUD WAS BEYOND SCIENCE. THEY NAILED THE SKINNY STACKED FIT IN THE EARLY 00'S. PEEP THE REAR STAR INSERT AND THE UPDATE ON THE FLY LABEL. IT'S AN INDIGO STRETCH FABRIC WITH A CONTRAST WEFT THAT POPS WHEN YOU DISTRESS THE FABRIC OR CUFF THE JEAN. DID I MENTION IT ALSO HAS A LASER GRAPHIC ON THE OUTSIDE? THE FIRST AND THIRD SNAPS ARE HEAD TO TOE GIRBAUD. THE INDIGO JACKET IS SHIPS JET BLUE, SHIRT BY PAUL SMITH & BOOTS BY GUIDI.
GIRBAUD THROWBACK
/"GIRBAUD'S HANGIN' BAGGY..." AN EARLY SYMBIOSIS BETWEEN HIP HOP & FASHION. HEAD TO TOE STONEWASH GIRBAUD ON GRAND PUBA. 1992.

OIL ON CANVAS.
GUCCI THROWBACK THURSDAY
/I REMEMBER THIS GUCCI AD FROM 2001. THE AD IS PURE TOM FORD, BUT A FEW YEARS AGO I FOUND THE JEANS AT A HOUSING WORKS THRIFT STORE IN CHELSEA, NYC. THEY HAD BEEN REPAIRED AND THE WASH WAS QUITE LIGHT FROM MULTIPLE WASHES. SO I TEA-STAINED THEM.
