AVAF - Assume Vivid Astro Focus
.
James Salaiz Ceramic Bullets
.
DSM held a special Open Day event a few weeks ago on October 13th, as a part of all the happenings in London's Frieze Art Fair.
On the Ground Floor, the AVAF display greets you as you walk in. Designed by Rei, the sculpture is covered in AVAF print. The Brazilian duo have some imagination - wacky, random and very, very colourful. You can see more of their work in their book AVAF Published by Rizzoli (also available in-store).
The Third Floor displays James Salaiz's Ceramic Bullets in their glass cabinets. These are beautiful, and much better in person than you can see here on the screen.
James himself is a super sweet New Yorker, and we were excited to see he has his works displayed in various CdG stores - well done.

Note :
The Trading Museum in Paris has now closed its doors,as its presence there was temporary, but you can still find all the above Designers in DSM.
Ganryu is definitely something to check out.
We love the description above.
GANRYU
There are clothes for people who have a free mind and who are active with curiosity. And also for those who live everyday life with a positive attitude. Pop, avant-garde, basic, and being not Comme-des-Garcons-like. I believe all that makes Comme des Garcons.

Back to the Basement, the latest running collection by Undercover for Nike, is a welcome addition. The FA/HO 2012 collection of the Gyakusou range is displayed with a Japanese theme (ofcourse) and includes an iPad with a video of Running Monks on loop.
The collection will see your wallet getting lighter... Simple in aesthetics, each piece has been well thought out with pockets, zips and seams in the right places - with running as the focus in the design. With Winter coming up, we need every reason to get out of the warmth and into the cold outside. I think some nice threads are enough motivation. Let's get running...
Mid- November, sees the launch of Comme des Garcons latest perfume, titled Comme des Garcons.
The perfume smells amazing. Very feminine.
According to CdG:
' Constructed linearly, the fragrance opens with the man made organic composites of aldehydes and safraleine, opening up with hawthorns and derivations of lilac, before exploding in a riot of flower oxides, then finally succumbing to notes of industrial glue and brown scotch tape with hints of musk and stryax. Purposefully taking a bottle that has been disqualified from existence and purposefully giving it its right to exist. ' via DSM Paper

ISSUE 006 of HERO Magazine OUT TOMORROW
.
Idea Books space
at
Dover Street Market
.
HERO magazine Issue 006 is dropping tomorrow at the IDEA BOOKS space at London's DSM.
This magazine is all about cute boys, fashion and more cute boys.
Infact this issue they have upped the ante and doubled in page size, are slightly larger in format, and the content is much better than Issue 005.
They have quality interviews at the back with Adrian Joffe, Justin Barnhill and, another fave designer of ours, Gosha Rubchinsky
Their design is superb, simple yet still unique to them - which is hard to do these days.
GRAB A COPY WHILE YOU CAN - ONLY A SIXER £6
The IDEA BOOKS space is definitely worth a visit. At the moment they are fully stocked with Comme des Garcons books (some published in 1986), Interview Magazines (when Warhol was Editor) and the new Carine Roitfeld books published by Rizzoli (including Limited Edition copies).
Our personal favourite at the moment is Egoiste featuring Andy Warhol, Julian Schnabel, Karl Lagerfeld, Brassai, Helmut Newton, Yves St Laurent, Richard Avedon, Sigourney Weaver and Chet Baker. It's a bargain at £250. The images are AMAZING - and at a size of A2, it really shows off the beautiful images.
Make sure you join Idea Books Mailing List to keep posted on new titles.
