Lost & Found, the artisanal Italian label designed by Ria Dunn, has launched an online shop called Rooms. Here, you can buy L&F archival pieces in addition to their adorable children’s wear, which sprang up from Dunn’s desire to make clothes for her own two kids.
Taking the creative approach, Dunn’s husband, the photographer Alessandro Esteri, shot all stock with Instagram, which superbly matches the label’s purposefully unpolished aesthetic. Shipping is available worldwide.
A new menswear store bowed in Chicago two weeks ago – Gallery Aesthete. A brain child of Stephen Naparstek, the owner of Bonnie and Clyde’s, the new shop offers a carefully selected designer lineup in a stark space designed by Lukas Machnik. Next to the established names like Ann Demeulemeester, Comme des Garcons, and Rick Owens hang clothes by Boris Bidjan Saberi, InAisce and Julius. Faliero Sarti scarves round up the collection. A rotating selection of fine art will be displayed alongside the garments and accessories, to highlight Naparstek’s view that the boundaries between fashion and art have been blurred.
Here is a mix by our editorial photographer Jeff P Elstone II, who has worked with us since volume one and has created unforgettable images based on Herman Hesse’s book Narcissus and Goldmund, Joseph Beuys’s infamous “I Like America and America Likes Me” performance, and the Norse goddess Freyja.
“Autumn is a melancholic and magical time of year… This mix is a collection of some of my very favorite tracks that capture the mood of this season,” is how Jeff describes this mix.
