I don't know what Levi's was thinking. But I guess if the price is right, one can sell his mother. That's what I feel about the transaction between J Crew and Levi's. Allegedly Levi's sold its LVC, or Levi's Vintage Clothing (Collection?) to J. Crew. If you were to do a relevant search on Google you probably can find traces of this relationship. I don't know it's made public or if it's even true but that's what I have gathered from my source. The collection typically sells for $200 for a vintage 501 replica and I guess J. Crew would probably jack it up maybe 25% more why 25% because that's what Google cache is telling me.
UPDATE 2 seconds after the above and some Google result reading:
The above was indeed old news. I found reports on that in August. So it's a done deal. My post trying to be a fashionista fails. Miserably. I guess the LVC is not offered online.

ReplyDeletein fact, when i first read your post about H&M x whoever-that-was-at-time, i was really impressed! :D
did you go to see the uniqlo +j line?
Really?
ReplyDeleteTell you what. I actually bought a few items from the +j collection. But I got there a week after its debut so I don't think I got the coolest and hottest. But to my surprise, I was "lucky" enough to find the one and only one men's blazer left there and it was my size. So I took it.
:D yes, that one was really cool!
ReplyDeletewow, they're gone pretty quick, huh? guess i won't be able to get anything from the +j line then.
