Virginia creeper AW02 Chenille Lettered Jumper
Raf Simons Virginia Creeper Varsity Jumper. From a previous post: A crimson key light, a runway in the vastness of the ominous nowhere woods and a penchant fondness of varsity nostalgia would best describe the Virginia Creeper AW02 season. The eerie, towering figures with muted colours reflect Raf’s observation of the duality of nature. Working in production, the washes of VC are still referenced by designers to this day. Raf's processing/washing in this collection hit just right to capture the worn, run down, faded and discoloured fabric that piles up in barrels in the corners of the United States. Despite used, dirty, old clothes being discarded and considered garbage by the masses, it is rather difficult to replicate the age and natural processing that it goes through. Simons uses an acid wash technique, along with other processing techniques, to replicate this effect, accelerating the fabric to deteriorate over time. However, certain pieces from the collection received different treatment than others, like the item we have available here :). Sold at the Dover Street sample sale many years ago, this Raf Simons jumper is one of the few unique chenille pieces, each with individually different lettering, processed in a burgundy maroon (originally in a red presuming from the stitching). Reading a unique "TS" and colorway, it is very fitting for the client that bought this item, Travis Scott. 48, fits big.$3,400 -

Multicolor Borderknit Sweater
Stephen Sprouse
$500
Multicolor Borderknit Sweater
$500Stephen Sprouse “S” 88 Multicolor Border Knit Sweater. For this season and a few seasons onward before his bankruptcy, Sprouse utilized his “xerox on xerox” designs which look were a staple in the late 80s and early 90s before it peaked as a cliche in the mid 90s. Stephen Sprouse pioneered his version of the xerox design at the Andy Warhol factory by xeroxing models/figures and creating a collage resembling the look in the advert pictured here featuring the border knit sweater. The hodgepodge presentation of subjects photographed individually in different contexts, yet grouped together by their essence through a curator, with thick borders, filtered photo degradation and accentuated sharpness as a byproduct from xeroxing the same image consecutively were ubiquitous in 90s youth media.

SS99 Secret Treasures 3D Floral Tee
Comme Des Garçons Homme Plus SS99 "Secret Treasures" 3D Floral Tee. CDG's reversible clothing is a signature of the label, however SS99 embraces Rei's penchant for dualities. The outdoor runway featured models walking down a flight of stairs and circling a path among the audience in what initially seems to be classic CDGHP silhouettes. As the show continues, the models gradually show the reverse side of their clothing, initially styled in conjunction with other obverse sided clothing, then later fully reverse. The collection features extravagant patterns 'hidden' away inside what seems to be conventional clothing. The tee for sale here is embellished with carefully constructed floral patterns that resemble 3D roses. 7/10 condition. Size M.$250 -
AW02 “Nowhere Man” Vintage Patchwork Long Sleeve
Number (N)ine
$2,450
AW02 “Nowhere Man” Vintage Patchwork Long Sleeve
Number (N)ine by Takahiro Miyashita AW02 Patchwork Long Sleeve. Aw02's runway, titled "Nowhere Man", was set in an edwardian themed viewing room assorted with dining chairs and tables. Models slowly sauntered along the catwalk wearing knits, muddy tones, felt hats, wool cardigans revolving around the ethos of The Beatles guitarist George Harrison. This is all a bit irrelevant though as these patchwork shirts weren't featured on the runway. These shirts are all 1 of 1, constructed from a stack of shirts, pieced out and sewn together jointed by a silk braid piping. What we have here is a sz 4, rendering this item quite desirable amongst collectors as these run quite small and lanky. 7/10, mild holes, neck stretching is very common with these shirts. Size 4 fits M-L.$2,450 -
Early 80’s x World’s End Mickey Tee

$550
Early 80’s x World’s End Mickey Tee
Today, we bring you three tees, two of which hail from the original mail-order undertaking in 1976, available in a variety of sizes before Seditionaries had their realization in retail stores. With the third being part of the 80’s era when Seditionaries began collaborating and stocking their items in brick and mortar shops of their previous competitor BOY (later Boy London) and their own World’s End. These items range in size, as the made-to-order t-shirts used were famously salvaged by McLaren’s team. The origins of the graphics go far back to 1967, when the satirical magazine “The Realist” published an unsigned cartoon mural by artist Wally Wood, which depicted childhood Disney icons engaged in mass acts of provocative debauchery. Vivienne was fond of this illustration. She reappropriated and to some extent mimicked the subjects on a variety of prints released throughout her involvement with the Seditionaries line. The first tee is the “Snow White & The Sir Punks” graphic. The concept and positions are nearly unchanged from the original, aside from Snow White’s vulva being exposed, the shafts are clearly drawn, and the act depicted leaves little concealed. It was through the printing process that the Seditionaries edge truly shined through, such as the seminal split-fountain treatment utilized on this specific piece which added to the visual detail. The second tee’s graphic portrays Mickey and Minnie engaging in intercourse, which contrary to the Snow White graphic was drastically changed from the Wally Wood’s mural. On the original illustration, Minnie is shown to be conducting a sexual exchange for payment for the character Goofy while Mickey and various other onlookers watch in amusement. On Vivienne’s rendition, major changes are made to Mickey’s attire for instance, which references the seminal punk rock bassist Sid Vicious of the “Sex Pistols.” The Third, made after the original mail order brochure, is of Mickey shooting up heroin. In the same vein as the Snow White graphic, this illustration goes completely unchanged from the original except for the staple Anarchy “A” replacing Mickey’s right ear. Seditionaries was Vivienne’s breakthrough project which laid out the groundwork for the visual language of the Punk fashion movement, which would later be endlessly appropriated. Aside from these “found images,” Malcolm and Vivienne would often outsource graphics from a variety of internationally acclaimed artists such as Jamie Reed – the graphic designer behind the “Sex Pistols.” With the mind of McLaren commercializing punk’s popularity, and Westwood’s penchant for iconoclasm, the duo molded iconic signifiers for the heart of the british punk movement.

Artisanal Reconstructed Tee
Maison Margiela "010" artisanal reconstructed tee. Oversized tee composed of 4-5 repurposed tees to create an oversized silhouette with a hodgepodge of details.
