diesel power

i'm not a huge fan of diesel's euro trash tactiles, but i do enjoy friendswithyou, a quirky design duo whose punky plushies i'm sure you've seen around town. your two-yr-old is probably slobbering all over one right this instant.

anyway, their 'winter tour wonderland' has landed at the nyc diesel denim gallery, part of a book launch publicity effort, and i suggest you check it out. you've got till sunday january 7th, 2007, to catch this sweet action.

it's a neat little space. only about 20 items of actual (brazenly overpriced overdesigned) clothing in the whole joint, but the last time i was there, they had this massive tortured metal sculpture in the middle of the store that left virtually no perusing room at all. and it was awesome. i wish i had had the guts to take a touristy photog.

also, i can't get enough of 65daysofstatic.

hear their raucous tunes here:
