OriginalFake X NEIGHBORHOOD October 23, 2007
I worked on a toy collaboration with Neighborhood and gave ZOOTH, their dog mascot, a Halloween makeover. It will release this Saturday at the Neighborhood shop and OriginalFake in Tokyo. BACK IN TOKYOI have been back in Tokyo for the past few days. The new clothing Konno designed looked great. I also got to see some old friends at a birthday dinner for Jules from LeiLow. After dinner we hung out at Kei's house where, although one year wiser, Jules still fell for the old banana peel in the hallway trick. and I caught Fraser reading his own blog. The first night here I wound up at Le Baron with Keiichi where I met fellow Honeyee blogger Jessica having her 23rd birthday party. Yesterday I went to Hajime Sorayama's studio with Katayama & Yumiko from Wonderwall and my friend Oka. It's a great studio to visit because there are years worth of reference for his paintings hanging throughout the studio. Last night ended with an incredible dinner that Kei and his wife Marni took me to. And now here I am awake at seven in the morning online... (I'll spare you the photo) |
