Refinery 29/ Urban Outfitters party, LA

So this is a little late, but we went out to LA in May to set up a great event for Refinery 29 at Urban Outfitters' Space 15 Twenty. The event was both a designer "tag sale" and a massive party for the launch of Refinery's LA branch. There were great clothes, great food and booze, and great music provided by The Like. Here are some shots of our setup, for party shots check out Refinery's site.

Our latest Generra windows loosely inspired by

the "Where the wilds things are" pod/nests.

We found this nice little write up the other day on our

burglar themed install we did in the Vince stores here in the

city during NYCs Fashion Night Out. Read all about it.

Generra in MePa

We played with an old art school exercise called "Exquisite Corpse" to make a fun display for Generra's Washington St. store. The exercise was started by the surrealists as a way to collaborate and mix styles without letting preconceptions inform the artists' decisions.


We used a number of found images from neo-classical paintings to popular cartoons as well was our own drawings to make stacked, interchangeable figures for the windows.


Some digital mockups...


... and the installed view.

Jill Stuart Spring 2010

Just a fun display for Jill Stuart's soho store...

A little window screening + some printed lips = ???


I love it when a plan comes together.

Steven Alan store re-boot

Steven shut down for 10 days to renovate his Tribeca flagship store, and we and his crew spent most of Friday night getting it ready for the weekend...


Some little upper displays...


plank of wood + rope ladder = bag fixture


4 am... ta-dah!

The Wolf Form factory in Englewood NJ

There were exactly 4 people working at the factory, and one baby, and 2 dogs... and they make the best dress/suit forms in the world.


Before the visit we were a little annoyed at how little info was on their website; after the visit we loved them for it. It is really an adorable little business where they do things the same way they have for decades, and because they're the best, they don't have to change.
