Comme Des Garcons - Guerrilla Stores

[nqth]

Well I'd say I am trying to do sth I like. And I just love CdG:-P

 

[Pastry]

i still can't wait till they decide to locate one store in manhattan, i's the closest i could get to a "guerilla" store..

i'm just so intrigued by the concept..

This Is Only Fashion !!

^ But I think I am not the kind of girl fighting or struggling...more enjoying...

....and you know what polkadots thats what its all about....ENJOYING ..period.

there is no "struggle" ...this is fashion and fashion is about fun ...some whould even say its flippant and "low brow" ...and lets face it ..its commerce and its a business and like all good businesses its about marketing and guerrilla is pure marketing. and its good markerting that happens to be Fun and interesting .

as mentioned many times before in various threads in TFS...THIS IS ONLY FASHION. !!

i think so, KAWAKUBO - the supporters and fellows of KAWAKUBO are THE KAWAKUBIANS...

not in a milion years

i still can't wait till they decide to locate one store in manhattan, i's the closest i could get to a "guerilla" store..

i'm just so intrigued by the concept..

are americans ready for this concept . even though there have been many POP up stores already in existence in NYC..eg Delta SONG ....I am just afraid that if a GS NEW york happens ..the CIA or FBI or whatever will have the store under constant surveillence and who knows.. may even invade it looking for mr OSAMA ...who BTW would look rather spiffy in a Junya Military themed trench.....what can i say !! ??

another reason a GS wont happen in MANhatan is the CDG store in chelsea already exist. !!!

if a GS pops up in .....say ...new orleans ......now we can get excited...

I understand what you mean, GB. It always needs some radical minds to bring something forward - in culture, arts, politics, etc.

But don't forget about the fun part...

Did anybody hear or read about the Basel opening? I could not go, because I had to work late. :-(
