          the shop is pretty nice. weathered hard wood floors, tall ceilings, dark atmosphere. paradoxically there are star wars action figures in the double glazed facade and stuffed toys all crammed behind a piece of plexi besides the staircase going up. a light-hearted gloominess i guess. compared to most stores here the service was fairly aloof which actually makes for a nice change sometimes!

          it looked like they had a full stock of clothing. still quite expensive overall imo but probably cheaper than where you're at!

                        Hi, would anyone have any links to the collection for 'But Beautiful… P.P.P.S' (part parasitic, part stuffed)? Cheers.

                        ps. pretty sure "But Beautiful V" [5] is 06-07'AW. "Purple" was 07-08'SS. 08-09'SS was "Summer Madness." And 08-09'AW "Unreal Real Clothes" (usually shortened to "Unreal"), with 09-10'SS "Neoboy and Poptonez" and 09-10'AW "Earmuff Maniac."

                            Think 07-08AW was called earmuff maniacs also.

                            What season was P.P.P.S?

                              P.P.P.S was 04/5 AW.





                              I'm sure many people know these links… for ones that don't, they're a pretty cool reference to the seasons, though by no means exhaustive it is quite interesting. On But Beautiful collections (irrespective of the Svankmajer influence), I particularly like their thinking. In the way they overturn industry assumptions on stuff that's usually taken for granted; such as the utility and uniformity of buttons, symmetries in cut, seams that are conventionally straight, stitching that's hidden or recessive, and even the sanctity of label positioning.
