"Anyway this is just form what I remembered
1. The bomber jacket with the attatched belt with hoop studs in black. Dior Homme S/S 2007
2. The sequined blazer in black and white (from KVA's collection)

Was all this labelled 'Jack London - Tailor' at fashion week?

Nope it wasn't. It's Joe Black - Tailor that presented some really terrible fits.

I agree with the comment about the staff. They dont have an eye for size and fit, the first item they gave me was two sizes too big and they didnt believe me when I told them so, the second was a coat which they said was my size, but it sat too loosely on my body, even if I intended to wear it as an overcoat with a suit underneath the coat would still sit too loosely. Apart from the sizing issues they were very attentive.

Sunday night when I first read your post I was going to try to defend the store and the designs, but having actually worn an item for a day Ive got to say that it sits poorly, Ive had cheaper pairs of pants fit me better and sit better on my frame.

However stores such as Jack London (but unfortunately for now not Jack London) have their place. If the clothes are well made and reasonably priced then the label can be a stepping stone for people just getting into fashion but who cannot afford the higher end designer labels (for instance those with their first part time job finally earning money to buy their own clothes). They can be a testing ground for styles, colours, materials etc that best suit the person. The lower price means they can afford more and therefore experiment more.
Also because of the price buyers have the ability to buy more clothes and then accordingly have a wider range of outfits. Its the argument of buying 10 or so items for $1000 and being able to make 5 different outfits, versus buying 1 item for $1000 and being stuck with just that one item.
I hope Im not being too bold here but you seem like the person that would prefers seeing someone wearing multiple outfits that look good on them, rather than seeing them wearing the same designer piece over and over because they spent so much on it and cant afford anything else.
