The archives of designer brands have gained increased attention in the past few years. Beyond the boundaries of brand-name vintage clothing, reevaluated pieces from the 80s to the 00s are attracting fashion experts.
Representative brands include Maison Martin Margiela and HELMUT LANG. In particular, items from a certain period created by star designers with a core fan base tend to soar in price.
In that sense, "RAF SIMONS" may be a rare brand whose archives have attracted attention even though the designer has not changed to this day.
Raf Simons is celebrating its 25th anniversary with the launch of its archive collection "ARCHIVE REDUX.
This collection is a reprint of a total of 100 items selected by Ruff himself from the brand's debut to the present day. The collection is sure to be coveted by fans, and includes a mod coat with artwork from the "NEW ORDER" album, which now sells for over 1 million yen on the secondary market.
In conjunction with this event, a limited-time pop-up store will be held at the ADDITION ADELAIDE and online store in Omotesando from January 22 (Fri.) to 31 (Sun.). This is a rare opportunity to obtain hard-to-find archives, so it is a must-see for fans.
