assin melbourne closed its doors for the final time
the store that introduced owens , undercover , anne and boris to the melbourne uninitiated is no more
rick arrivals circa 2005/2006 the most memorable retail experiences in melboure albeit ten years ago....
sad now.... that for every decent store closing, ten purveyors of crap sprout up
like what is that masons all about ? junya with philippe starck perfumes ....and 450 year old single malt
and gucci super store where alas all former denizens of small and extra small paul harden now gather in small brightly coloured flocks
and left about to phoenix
and
enough ranting
just a gentle raise of the sake cup to Fernanda and her team

I would imagine it's especially hard on the Aussie shops to compete against the Internet, since they cannot compete on price. Without a hardcore local clientele, that's quite impossible.
It's funny, when StyleZeitgeist blew up, we were all complaining about bandwagoneers, and now that the trend has passed and people who had no real interest in these brands have moved on, as fashionistas do, we are lamenting, too.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

Assin in Sydney was my entree into the avant garde. I went to the store to buy some Dior Homme jeans in 2008 or so, and an entirely new world opened up to me. My bank balance was never the same again!
Australia definitely struggles, but Melbourne is still a helluva lot better for SZ-style clothing than Sydney...

so why did they close?
tbh, i've never bought anything from them, but since everyone wants rick 11BBS and off-white atm they shouldn't have problems doing business
their buys were sorta weird and running out of small sizes. when i found something nice the markup was absurd. i only buy from cose and EM...too skinny for rick
