- This is my favorite video I’ve made in a long time because I think y’all will really enjoy what PALY is cooking up. I don’t even care about resale margins personally but if Enfants Riches Deprimes has taught me anything, it’s that crazy grails get people psyched, and I think there’s something here.

Brand name isn’t it. Enfants Riches Deprimes looks/sounds cool, chrome hearts looks/sounds cool. PALY hollywood looks/sounds like a tiktok brand
Wait until you find out what the translation of ERD is 😂
@@ShotsMerkzAll😂 ye that’s true but it looks aesthetic. like vetements looks dope and it just means clothes
I'm almost positive it's named after Palo Alto, and Franco's first(?) book was Palo Alto Stories so it's all kind of connected. But I get where you're coming from. I think in the end though once it gets integrated into people's minds and they're aware and into it, it really doesn't matter. I think Demeulemeester is silly af as a word/brand name but I have a connotation of coolness in my mind when I hear it because the clothes are cool and they've created a history for themselves. Does that make sense?
@@LOWluxury Demeulemeester is the designers last name. Ann….
@@carrisagrace1 of course, but he was talking about the “look” of the brand name, and as a brand name it looks silly. I have no problem with it, it was her name, it makes sense. But from a purely aesthetic point of view, it’s a funny collection of letters.
The hem thing isn’t a rip off of anything. Those vertical stitches are is what’s known as a single stitch hem. It’s how t-shirts commonly made prior to the mid-90s. Single stitch t-shirts have become very desirable because of the rise of the boxy, cropped, faded vintage blank/band t style that Bare Knuckles and Unsound Rags has skyrocketed in popularity among the “if you know you know” online guy’s fashion crowd.
100% I hear that. This probably didn’t come through so my b it’s not just the fact that they use a single stitch it’s the specific height and spacing combined with the tags, material etc that makes me think there’s some very interesting supply chain stuff happening behind the scenes.
@@LOWluxurytake this with a grain of salt. but I heard, and it’s only a rumor, that henry levi is dave franco, he always has been and he wears a plastic face mask
its actually not a regular single stitch - its a scar stitch used by many avantgarde/darkwear brands
Its isnt single stitch its called flat lock
@@DemonicPotatoil actually, flat lock is for two separate pieces. if you’re aiming to be condescending, try a simple google search first.
Sizing question. I also wear a small in most designer clothing but I had to size up for ERD’s paper thin tee’s (the new ones like sleep sound and theatre of cruelty). My question is, what size do u take in those. To help me decide which tee size I would get in Paly. Lowk already ordered a medium. Got the “Hollywood is hell tee”
I think I like my normal size the best but it depends how into the crop you are!
Does anyone know another brand that is like Paly Hollywood? But cheaper but kinda similar style shirts. Thank you!
isnt the single stitch obvious reference to vintage tees? abercrombie and ralph lauren also used that finishing to their tees recently
Totally not just and ERD or Paly thing. Brought it up because it’s so similar that when combined w the other similarities it makes me wonder about sourcing and manufacturing, which I love to nerd out about.
addicted to this whole channel, best takes
it’s crazy because ppl have turned inspiration to a bad thing these days. all these brands are inspired by something and if you love and appreciate art then you’ll understand this is just an interpretation of “their” art. i have a brand called Fragile, had it in 2013 before paly and ERD (first collection idk about the thought itself) existed and i was heavily inspired by ralph, heidi, Vivienne, film, art music, vintage t’s etc etc. during covid i had to stop production unfortunately. so i took time off but i have been revamping Fragile and my craft this year, more cut and sewn pieces, pattern making, sourcing fabric etc and its partially because im finding myself more and more inspired by brands like ERD and paly. they have took my similar thoughts and made them a reality for a smaller brand like myself so maybe im bias because i love both brands and because they reflect my brand as well in a way. at the same time i get some ppl views on this and i know plagiarism is a real thing but my vision for Fragile is mine and mine only at the end of the day and ill stay true to that kid from brooklyn who loves all these things that i mentioned and hopefully one day it’ll pay off. i just love fashion and creating so i hope to send Low Luxury a piece one of these days appreciate the channel and see ya all soon! great vid bruv! 😎
Cool video thanks for not gatekeeping
How tall are you? I want to get a paly tee but the only one I want only has sizes in Small and XL and the XL will def be too bulky for my liking would you recommend the size small? I’m 5’9 but 6ft when I wear the shoes I like for my outfits. Also thank you for another amazing video keep it up top 5 content creator🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks brother! I’m 5’10” not counting any boots or anything haha. I think their sizing is pretty forgiving bc of how wide they are. The first tee in the vid is a small.
You have made me love fashion again thank you
What are your thoughts on RTA?
Hey brother love your content! Question. Where’d you get your clothing hangers?
One of the best questions I’ve ever been asked, TY! These literally changed everything for me, night and day over normal clothing hangers. They’re called “TIMMY Plastic Hangers” on Amazon. I’m not affiliated with them or anything, they’ve just worked really well for me at mitigating shoulder bumps/stretching.
Thank you thank you thank you! Appreciate the quick reply! How do you feel about the Schwabs Pharmacy hat Paly dropped?
@@isaacolivan3767 im a fan!
Death On Hollywood Hoodie Is Pretty Dope
they just restocked the black “james dean death cult” hat. had to get it. so iconic.
Htf is it iconic
Hot trash! ERD is still king
great showcase ❤
Nothing that brands like Saint Michael and ERD haven't already done. Becoming generic at this point. At least Gallery Dept. used to upcycle fashion albeit at a crazy stupid price. Chrome will always have celebrity backing given the Starks strong relationships developed over many years. Brands like ERD and Paly Hollwyood will come and go. Most Gallery pieces are sitting on shelves these days. The hype for a lot of these brands just doesn't last. I personally like to invest into the designer themselves and I love a lot of Hedi Slimane's pieces from Dior through his time now at Celine. Could care less if the brand is designer or "mainstream". The pieces are timeless and archival and speak for themselves.
very well said, I think the style is cool but its just so easy to replicate (since most of the designs from saint Michael, red, and others are references to other vintage tees), I think its going to be interesting to see which brands stick with this aesthetic and don't follow the trend cycle. whichever brands are genuine will be the ones that will exceed hype by having a real message or distinct style (this will probably be erd since I feel like its the face of the style, saint Michael is slightly different but also will probably stick around)
Would you like to work sourcing manufacturers?
HMU!
How do you feel about Satoshi Nakamoto
REALLY like it but jfc the prices
Brand is just so obviously a lazy copy of ERD, from the hand drawings, to the tag, hang tag, designs, details, etc etc etc. only reason it’s relevant is because of the celeb connections. And I’m almost positive henris aware because I know someone very close to him and they agreed it’s a horrible brand copy of ERD. Even the artwork is damn near a copy with minor tweaks. If you support real fashion and Henris ERD you’d never buy this bullshit
James Franco’s art isn’t even that similar to the art they use for paly, paly is way more of a ERD copy and not Franco’s art. Almost positive Franco’s friend copy’s ERD and Franco unknowingly approves since it’s similar to what he does
I think I have a few thoughts here. For one I’m not sure I care what Henry thinks about it? Obviously I respect his work but the cult of Henry is a little weird. I also think that by “going legit” and doing runway shows, leatherwork, tailoring etc. it leaves a lane for more streetwear oriented stuff like this. But then finally there’s no question it’s aesthetically very similar to ERD so if that means it feels like a ripoff and you’re not interested I def can’t argue
But you get to the heart of this entire video which I appreciate - the question of, “is this authentic?” Which I find incredibly interesting
@@LOWluxury true and that is a good question. Obviously personally I don’t think it’s authentic HOWEVER I think they can turn it around and do some more unique stuff and really carve out a lane.
@@nicklavigne8351 I appreciate the discussion! I love these types of questions and appreciate your take
Immediate like
Most of their graphics is garbage in my not so humble opinion lol.
But the clothes look super nice.. I like the Hollywood is hell t-shirt and sweatshirt.
I think how a graphic hits your eye is a pretty personal and subjective thing, but one thing I will say regardless of how good or bad you think it is, they have a very well fleshed out graphical identity esp for how new they are which is a big plus IMO.
@@LOWluxury yeah I agree..
And my opinion is no knock on your taste. Tbh I really like that your style is so far from mine.. But still with a bit of overlap. That's how I find the best inspiration.
the brand is very cool. never heard of it before. watch these kids jump ship as soon as their favourite feminine rapper wears it
and for you to be liking Paly but posting the new “La and Miami fucking up fashion” video is wild
I like the aesthetic of Paly for sure but definitely not gonna argue with criticisms around their ERD similarities or general industry plantishness
bro… brand could not be worse, and a worse carbon copy of ERD. James goes to henris runways, art galleries, etc, then rips all of it heavy. The instances of side by side comparisons of him copying ERD are criminal, 0 authenticity. Will not be resellable. This is terrible
Ok so you sold out to these guys' brand...
If you wanna feel that way about that's fine by me, but it is important to note that I bought these myself, wasn't asked to make the video by anybody, didn't talk to them before I made the video, etc. etc. Video is 100% my own opinion with no outside influence.
And also wasn't compensated for the video, anything like that. I don't want anyone to feel like I'm lying by omission. Basically I had absolutely no reason to make the video other than wanting to make the video.
@@LOWluxurybrother doesn’t waste your breathe on foolery. We love what you do.
