NEW RICK OWENS STORE LONDON




Rick Owens Opens Store in London
April 7th 09, 2:41 | James Oliver
Rick Owens has opened his first store in the UK, in London’s Mayfair district. After several unforeseen delays, no doubt the fair people of London will be itching to get their hands on Owens’ ominously beautiful pieces. As you would expect, the space is quintessentially Owens, with ‘an air of Romantic ruin…and a modern austerity’. A life sized sculpture of Owens’ head on a platter is the centrepiece of the store, in typical Owens wit and irony. Definitely check it out if you’re lucky enough to be in the neighborhood.
