"Rick Owens Tokyo Store" Opens
A serene and beautiful space, the fourth of its kind worldwide.
Rick Owens Tokyo Store Opens
Crafted over a month by artisans brought from Paris, these 40-centimeter-thick concrete blocks feature surfaces with occasional air bubbles, all finished by hand with brushes.
"I am incredibly pleased to open a boutique in Tokyo. Japan has always been a standard of pure aesthetic sensibility for me. The boutique is designed based on my ultimate ideals of 'cave, rock, fire, and fur.'" – Rick Owens
The Tokyo store showcases the full spectrum of Rick Owens.
The square, spacious interior is enveloped in concrete of what Owens describes as a "warm, gentle grey." The glass-fronted facade offers a sweeping view of the lush greenery of the adjacent Nezu Museum.
The fitting room, located in the back right of the store, appears to be surrounded by mirrors on all four sides, embodying Owens' desire for customers to "see themselves from every angle when trying on clothes."

The signature leatherwear that beckons the touch, simple yet delicate knits, and sculptural, artistic jackets and trousers create a beautiful, wave-like color gradation, breathing quietly within the serene space.
Additionally, the "PALAIS ROYAL" fur collection, objets d'art personally created by Owens himself, and future furniture pieces are planned to be displayed within this space.
