    Rick Owens Comes To London



    Rick Owens is the mysterious and the mainstream brought together in one fashion designer. Visitors to his store in Palais Royal in Paris may be mystified by the Madame Tussauds wax scupture of Owens, which he installed himself; but that won?t stop them buying the sort of uniquely cut t-shirt or vest that eventually becomes a wardrobe staple because of the trademark sillhouette that Owens has been developing ever since he was making clothes in his native Los Angeles. Owens moved to Paris from LA five years ago and has been showing his collections in Paris since then. His European presence is about to be strengthened as he opens his first store in London following another recent store opening in New York.

    He is really cool. I want to interview him.

    RO: The location and space
    really dictate the decor. Paris is plush and insulated in the Palais
    Royal. New York is bleak and open with a fog machine installation and
    London will have a waxwork representaiton of my head on a plate for a
    more classical mood.

            Says Opening Soon on the site... I think it said October last week... maybe it's delayed. Can't wait to see it though.
            If anyone has more info, please post.

                  From what I've heard the RO store won't be ready until Spring of 2009.

                    Overheard one of the ladies at the Palais Royal store two days ago say that the London store would be open November 15th, but who knows.

                      it is rather interesting that i was thinking about you today and wondering who or when will we get a chance to read another article/interview by you.

                      you should really work on it.........

                        Just got back from Paris and stopped by the RO shop and according to everyone there, RO London is opening in December at last... Apparently smaller than the Paris store.
