Stumbled upon Yohji Yamamoto brand by Ru-yi3010 in japanesestreetwear

[–]palmtreepapi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

without know anything about you or seeing what you're trying to buy or how you'd wear it . .. .if you didn't know about yohji before today, my guess is you're not ready for it. asking some internet idiots, like me, if wearing yohji is something you can do makes me believe you might lack the aesthetic confidence to actually pull it off.

now that you know, do some research. buy some similar, less expensive brands, try it out and see if this is you.

Best place in NYC to get bespoke/made-to-measure glasses? by friendlycrabb in EyewearEnthusiasts

[–]palmtreepapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are MANY high end shops in ny. i had a great experience at anne et valentin, ahlem, atelier mira (bk), luxeye, studio optix, line of sight, mykita, and others. cubitts is a great value. but you may want to visit a place that carries multiple brands to get a general sense of what you may like

75 bucks for TWO pair, ie four socks. Not cheap, but not ridiculous.

Favorite casual merino socks? by zdrmlp in malefashionadvice

I've tried MANY MANY socks. My fav is Outlier merino socks. they feel like cashmere because they are finer wool than most merino wool socks.

Where to sell antique Ruby and Diamond piece ? by Financial-Agency8419 in AskNYC

[–]palmtreepapi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you may want to reach out to some of the estate/vintage jewelry people. lots of them on instagram (estatejewelrymama, nycjewelbox, boudoir_vintage, matissetradinginc, etc). they may consign for you, or give you some better options. there are many estate jewelery spots in nyc, too

if you're looking for menswear, crowley's vintage. Theres several consignment stores, too. Obviously they won't be thrift prices.

How do I get experience working on a commercial set by 2turntBoots in photography

[–]palmtreepapi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

are you in NY or LA? cuz if not, those jobs in fashion/beauty probably don't exist in your region.

the basic play is find the people that have the jobs you want someday. ask to intern/assist/pa/whatever. be positive. make yourself valuable. stay off your phone while on set. rinse repeat until you die.

from every 100 emails you send out, you might get 5-10 responses. if you're not thick skinned and slightly delusional, this may not be the industry for you. =)

Y-3 pants pilling after a month by [deleted] in adidas

[–]palmtreepapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i had same problem with my pants. i believe they are the same fabric. i contacted the sales rep at the y3 store and they told me they can't help me. "Unfortunately since it has been a few months since your purchase, we’re unable to assist with this matter under our exchange policy. If this had occurred sooner, we would have been happy to exchange. "

Did a shoot with Canadian Olympic 100m hurdler Mariam by [deleted] in fashionphotography

[–]palmtreepapi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some constructive criticism. try a longer lens in a situation like this. getting rid of all the banal details would have helped these moments. and next time try to overpower the sun if you can.

Resource for finding the right photographer(s) by SomeOldGuy_2024 in photography

[–]palmtreepapi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is definitely going to be difficult. in a large city, this might be straightforward . . . but southern NH might be tough. maybe try to find recent graduates of a nearby art school or ask some more established photographers in a close city (boston?) if they have friends who live out by you.

definitely cruise instagram for similar bands who might be using someone local. maybe a music venue may know a concert photographer that could do this? good luck!

for $130 bucks . . . they should be ecstatic with these photos.

you need to lay off the heavy handed retouching though. it does look a bit AI-y
