There will soon come a point when Dover Street Market, for my own sake, have to take out a restraining order on me. Is there an ASBO for excessive spending? Everything in this store fills me with happiness, and thus only this weekend the till rang with the sound of my bank account being emptied. Of course I was overjoyed to be asked to snoop around their new Christmas range; inspired by the work of ‘assume vivid astro focus’ (avaf), it’s an insanely bright and colourful meander through some of their most loved items. Also thanks must be given to the lovely Purple girls and boys who had to listen to my deranged ramblings; they don’t let me out of the basement too often for exactly this reason.
Gigantic elephant in the window.
Crazy colour; my retinas ache a little.
This is the shirt you may send me as a Christmas present.
Or one of these play t-shirts.
To smell nice is a virtue; to smell nice with a fragrance from a limited edition papier maché bottle is to be close to conceptual godliness.
The ‘hotbox’ (edgy), we love, t-shirt heaven.
