Re: RICK OWENS
I had a weird experience with Rick Owens once, which wasn't as bad as its sounds....read on. I was in Paris this summer, and went to the Palais Royal shop. There were no people there other than the sales assistants and....what appeared to be Rick standing motionless on a shelf (about chest hight off the floot) behind the till/sales point. I assumed that it was some kind of plastic or wax model of him, which would have been weird enough. But I'm sure it was him! The thing is, no one was looking at it/him - all the sales assistants were just going around doing the usual, not even acknoweldging his/its existence. I was so freaked, that I didn't want to ask. So i just pretended to be cool, walked around a bit, looked at a few slouchy tees,occassionally glancing up, surreptitiously, at the Rick, thinking...what the feck is going on here, and whay the feck am I not asking what is going on here.....and then I just left, with a merci au revoir. Actually now that I'm writing this, it sounds so implausible I wonder whether it actually happened.
