or 'A Mean Man'

Top Brynje

T-Shirt Raf Simons
Magazine Spike

Raf Simons projects his curriculum vitae onto the products he offers for sale. As art consultant and collector, he places artworks straight onto the clothes he produces for his own line, for Jil Sander and now Dior. With those textile re-editions of Picasso, Rothko and Warhol, pop art can be folded away neatly in drawers or put on hangers - which informs a new term, that is Closet Art.
