They make some sick stuff, I love the way kj xen and heckle wear it
Speaking of @kamotejoe what's the name of those mesh tanks they're so good
Looks nice
Some of the nicest fabrics and most interesting cut garments I’ve ever handled. Trousers, knits and outerwear are standouts in particular. O Project, his MIJ diffusion line, is also great value on Y!JP. >50% of my wardrobe is JJVE at this point if I had to guess.
bliss foster has conditioned me to worship this man
in all seriousness i enjoy how varied the pieces are (he made a thick striped kimono in a past season that i would live in if possible) and the craftsmanship is superb
JJVE is god
his work has a very consistent and unique style of masculinity that suits me just right
and his fabric selection is the best I've ever handled
iirc KJ wears mesh tanks from Nicholas Daley , I've got the O-project ones you're thinking of. they're on ssense!
JJVE and O project are also my most worn clothing items for sure. they feel great and I feel great wearing them
by all accounts, JJVE and his team are very kind and easy to work with
😬 ok i deleted my comment to not derail this thread
word
heh it’s nicholas daley as confirmed by xen.
Heck!
Tysm
to clarify this is a statement of fact and not endorsement of or condoning of his actions
jan jan van esche makes good clothes, that was my gateway there 👍
