how long he's gonna be up there?

>>8742114
a month or something

>>8742120
tinfoil-chan wanna meet up there?
no homo

>>8742135
i'm probably not even going to go tbh
i want to see more furniture irl and meet him, but that's not really worth the frankly grotesque atmosphere there is at rick happenings. it's unfortunate, but i just feel really uncomfortable and intimidated around the majority of his customers... being stared out by grown men and women is weird and unnerving (i'm not going to bother talking about the hordes of teenagers either)

whenever i want to enjoy a rick experience i'll walk to his store fifteen minutes down the street

Just saw about this on the Raster-Noton fb page, they're dropping 8GB SD cards w/ sweet goodies exclusively for the takeover.

They're £235 each as well lmao
>dem Emptyset / Ryoji Ikeda / Alva Noto / Byetone.

>>8742150
well at least you're tall and have actual rick pieces. dunno why they would stare you that much? because you're young?

>>8742159
Because he's an ugly cunt.

I want to go there and get a photo with Rick then post it here and you lot call me ugly and crop my face and post it everywhere like that one kid a few months ago

the /fa/ dream

Damn, I was there the 25th. Giant Rick wasn't there yet. ;_;

>>8742237
Gorgeous confident popular boy alert

Any chance of getting higher res pics of the windows? They look great.

>>8742159
Because he's a known internet fuccboi

How long is this up?

Wish I could check it out. I was actually supposed to be heading to london in a couple days, but canceled

lmao

>>8742077
tinny you silly cunt he did a pale pink flight bomber/trench for Faun you really think he's rusing w/ colour comments?

Also where have you been? /fa/ has been shit without weekly or fortnightly /rick/ threads.

>>8742159
true rick buyers are an older unusual and sophisticated breed of person

there is a reason for his decade long cult following

they stare because you look like shit

they mimicked his hairline so well--

>>8742239
m8 hes not gonna be there 24/7 for you to take photos with

>>8745208
not really true it's pretty diverse. The few other people I've metwearing Rick were really friendly but were a little too "fashion is my life" for my liking.

>>8745182
yes nerd that's why he's rusing

'oh yeah there's a yellow tag in the clothes maybe this means ill start using some colours'

*produces men's faun months before saying this*

>>8745208
you are really buying into those dreadful articles that call groups of rick fans a 'dark parade' and a 'monastic monochrome cult', that suggests everyone that buys him is a big swag team but it's not really like that

you're quite randomly aggressive in your post despite being less informed than i am, but i'll give you the benefit of the doubt by explaining this to you

>true rick buyers are an older unusual and sophisticated breed of person
there is no 'true buyer' of anything. this is an embarrassing statement. this suggests rick values one person's money more than another's, and he does not. there is no hidden core of ~~authentic~~ elderly gothninja ppl that get discounts and brush his hair. this just does not happen. rihanna owns more rick pieces than anybody discussing him on the internet. is she a true rick buyer?

in my post, i complain about the atmosphere at shows- it's ugly, and 90% of the people there are not the 65yo+ wizards you've created for your tinfoil sucks narrative. they may be rick's PRIMARY (not "true", you literal shithead) consumer, but they are the least visible at shows. the MAJORITY there are 20-30somethings, and the atmosphere is u g l y. if you go one day, you'll probably understand (or go to any runway show tbh). everyone is furiously staring at each others clothes, furiously smoking, furiously looking around to see if they are being photographed, furiously waving their invitations at the security or furiously arguing that they are on the list. it's unpleasant, and you can understand the effect on me, probably. when i was at moody i was seventeen, and i was freaked out by everything! and i subject myself to it because i love rick and want to watch his shows up close and not through my computer.

1/2

>>8745305
lol this post was legit autistic dude settle down. You're normally was calmer with your posts.


I understand what you mean about the revolting competitive atmosphere though. It's like a manifestation of basic struggles for dominance and shit.


Missed your rick generals too.

>>8745305

everyone who likes fashion is a cunt tbh

>>8745305
i'd like to stress that i have, of course, met lovely people at shows. these were fans that were not brawling on the steps to be photographed by adam katz sinding. when i was at moody, i met a really nice older married couple from england, (and they get as close to the rich-old-people-tons-of-rick stereotype as you can get) from like harpenden or somewhere else miles away from anything, and they were telling me how when the wife learned about rick through the store opening they got a train to london the same day to check it out because they both got really excited about it. that was very nice.

rick staff, stores and shows = really nice.
many rick customers = really nice.
competitive stylezeitgeist rick fans = slightly less nice.

>still liking rick

>>8745305
fuck you sound retarded. perhaps it's you who furiously is seeking attention. been to dior homme shows in paris among others and it's never been what you describe. i guess your fashion_scene_knowledge comes directly from sites like this

>>8745305
and yes there are "true buyers" of any product. it really has to do with positioning within a market — it's what any brand does. but really you cant break the "true buyer" down only to demographics like age or gender.

>>8745328
guess so

>>8745317
sorry

>>8742151
it's weird that it's ryoji doing the residency thing and not byetone (for anyone unaware rick used byetone music for plinth and vicious)

is it byetones label? he's the only one i really listen to of the group besides ryoji

Tinfoil confirmed little guppie fuccboi

>core demographic at Rick Selfridges

Chubby asians with more money than sense

Overweight early-30 year olds that don't realise that the Rick/Goth ninja meme expired FW2012.

>>8745345
check your privilage your rich white boy. your parents pay for your rick

>>8745375
they don't i promise

>>8745345
no lol. you know nothing of the work of the raster notion, mille plateux, pan or mego (currently editions mego) label. i think you should just give up because rick will never like you

>>8745377
w2c job to pay for rick?

>>8745379
if ur gunna chide me for not knowing about german techno whatever its fine, but don't spell the name wrong lmao

cutlery is good though

>>8745430

i wish my job was writing product descriptions

"High on the agenda at Paris Fashion Week, this doorag head scarf from iconic designer Rick Owens is a must-have accessory this season. Worn by the likes of legendary rap artists 50 Cent and Snoop Dogg, this style is a real statement, perfect for the fashion conscious out there."

"Rick Owens' sub-culture style is referenced in the sublime details of this merino wool cardigan. The elongated silhouette, sheer panelling and unique middle-seam at the back provide the label's directional D.N.A."

"Add a sporty edge to your streetwear with Rick Owen's Geobasket hi-top sneakers. Crafted from fine Italian leather with a unique oversized padded tongue and chunky contrasting sole, with an exposed zip for extra style points, these sneakers will take you from the basketball court to the catwalk in no time."

remember this is officially the world's best department store

>>8745500
I think selfridges knows pretty well who they want to appeal to with their descriptions

Designed exclusively for Selfridges, this Masters knife by Rick Owens makes the ultimate style statement in the home. Exquisitely crafted in contrasting silver and bronze to enhance your culinary experience, this will give any table setting a designer-luxe uplift.

how have u been man?

Got any new rick recently?

Rick jumped the shark long before this, but this is the final nail in the coffin.

>>8745396

as much as you try to play it off as >le internet fight it's pretty obvious that twerk and timber cuntery is really rubbing off on you, thought i was reading a timber post back there

lay off the internet fashion superiority complex you fucking nerds

>>8745305
Misunderstanding on my part then tintin, I thought you meant he was rusing as in he was not going to actually commit to bringing more colour into his clothing, but you're right. Every Rick interview I've read lately asks shit like, 'so why black?' as if they've only seen his work by looking through instagram hashtags instead of the shows.

hey I'm heading to selfridges/oxford street this friday and dress like a pleb, if i try anything will i be pretty-women'd out of the area?

>>8742150

>>8745440
You keep posting this but it's a really cute picture.

>>8745320
This seems to be true.


the thing i hate about a lot of young people (and myself) is the way we try to define ourselves and make ourselves interesting by trying to like cooler music and like better memes than those around us.

That article about hipsters is as relevant as ever.

Do you mean internet memes? People actually like memes in order to look cool?

>>8750561
I think he means in the symbology/semiotics sense.

i'll ring ahead and book an appointment

We should do a London meetup at the Rick Store

imagine 12 dangerously underweight sweaty faggots packed in that store whispering "r-raf simons rick owens" and giggling to themselves dropping spag bol everywhere

>£875.00 for a plate

Goddamnit Rick

>>8745447
whats different about the self ex sneakers from the regular ones?

>>8751577
i was in a store couple weeks ago and the saleswoman told me ramones arent going to be called ramones anymore because 'the ramones' sued

havent seen this confirmed anywhere but on the rickwebsite theyre only called sneakers now

i'm disappointing about the exclusive pieces. it's just ordinary pieces with a special tag inside and a yellow patch. but to be fair i'd actually dislike if selfridges had real good exclusive pieces that i'd only be able to get from them.
the canvas bags are not super overpriced. i guess that's notable.
i wonder if they're going to get more stuff? the selection atm is somewhat small for retailer of their size, even if you disregard the whole collaboration thing.
also rick. plz change back to the old zip pullers.

>>8752517

A lot of the exclusives weren't made for them, but are just pieces that they'll retail exclusively in the UK. There's only a small patch of the yellow-tagged stuff that was made expressly for this showcase.

This kind of thing seems more like Errolson's aesthetic. But whatever.

>>8752517
That haircut is out of control. I sincerely questioned if that was a female.

>>8752639
u might be gay if the only identifier of women features you have is their hair.

>>8745345
Why weird that it's ryoji?

>>8752517
Ate you talking about RY zippers to Raccagani?

>>8752735

>This small-town, Wagner-loving, Hollywood Boulevard party boy has since established a niche as fashion's dissenter-in-chief that's so lucrative he recently withdrew from the purchase of an entire island in Venice only because the Italian bureaucracy was so impenetrable.
