I question someone who commissions wax figures of themselves...but hey, he's a brilliant mind, so who am I to judge!

Ha, mate - check your avatar.
Nice interview, he must get tired of repeating the same stuff though, although his honesty about his dad is something quite recent. Surprisingly open, I like it.

Actually, Mr.Beyus, he spoke about it in the New Yorker article, much of which was lifted for this article.

Sorry for posting it before reading it - I was running out of the house. Indeed there is not much new there, mostly stuff the New Yorker article already covered. But in a way I understand - big paper, dilettante audience, so you have to put the bio in, etc. I had to do the same for my piece.

thank you for this, as someone who is still relatively new to rick, and a couple of these other labels on here. This really spoke to me because I saw parallels between my life, and this hailed designer.

It just makes that much more sense to me why these garments provoke the feelings which they do when I see the clothes. It has brought to light a lot about myself, and it has only further fueled my addiction.

Well, I read a while ago that he turned over 30 Million but now 50 Million? That's a lot.
