but we belong together ! - That's what the jacket says to the client who's trying to separate it from its other half. It's about time they stopped selling jackets and trousers separately and refused clients with unproportional bodies. they wouldn't call them suits if they were not meant to suit, would they ? Tailors and their custom-made suits are there for you ( clients with unproportional bodies ) to feel better (distinguished) about yourselves, so keep your hands off the shelves and leave the store please. This is the plea of a helpless client with a proportional body who couldn't buy a suit for the trousers were missing.

Guglielmo Sansoni, "Il perfetto borghese" ( "The Perfect Bourgeois" )

" Is man no more than this? Consider him well. Thou owest the worm no silk, the beast no hide, the sheep no wool, that cat no perfume. Ha! Here's three on's are sophisticated! Thou are the thing itself; unaccommodated man is no more but such a poor, bare, forked animal as thou art. Off, off, you lendings! come unbutton here. "

William Shakespeare, ''King Lear''

JIL SANDER the ideal gift for an ideal life !

left Jil Sander S/S 09 menswear (obviously) right artwork by Komar & Melamid- founders of the movement SotsArt- Soviet Pop and Conceptual Art based on Socialist propaganda and mass culture. Sots Art combined the principals of Dadaism and Socialist Realism.

works include portraits of family members and self-portraits in the style of representations of official heroes, and works bearing popular slogans—"Glory to Labor!" or “Onward to the Victory of Communism!” for example—signed by K&M. After the end of the USSR, they created a very long scroll, History of the USSR in Slogans, 1917-1991 . Ironically, all originals of official slogans, which served as an ephemeral conceptual part of Socialist Realism, vanished because no one collected them, and only the slogans painted by K&M survived. source http://www.komarandmelamid.org/
