>>A few of us may have been confused when Dover Street Market opened only to discover it's not really a market, with the London Mayfair address being a bit of a giveaway.  However, DSM have decided to put on a 'market' of sorts this coming Bank Holiday Weekend.  I say 'of sorts' because it's not an open-air affair.  Of course not.  We are talking about Comme des Garcons archive pieces from AW04-SS07 at 'stupendous prices' (their words, not mine...).  Can't really have those flapping about in this sunny windyness we're getting.  So it's gonna be held at Phillips de Pury & Co. auction house in Victoria, London...

There will also be Pierre Hardy, Martin Margiela, Raf Simons, Dior Homme, John Galliano, Nina Ricci, Undercover, Number (N)ine blah blah blah.... if there are indeed archive pieces from those labels too, then the boyf and I are going to have quite the field day...

Shall be seeing you there... plus we can rummage the charity shops and the sadly closing Cornucopia (grrr...let's not get into that...) on Upper Tachbrook Street afterwards as a contrast to all the 'DE-ZINER' DSM offerings...
