A Fashionable Heroine, An Intriguing Story

New York-based 3.1 Phillip Lim has released the original comic book "Kill The Night." The script was a collaboration between designer Phillip Lim and comic book writer Ron Marz, with art by Jean Diaz, known for his work on Star Wars comics. This special edition is the result of a star-studded creative team.

3.1 Phillip Lim's 2012 Autumn/Winter season draws inspiration from the worlds of comic books like "Sin City" and "V for Vendetta," and their heroines. This comic book creation is therefore a fitting way to convey the essence of this season's collection.

The story delves into the core of things that cannot be understood from a single perspective, exploring duality and transformation, light and shadow, black and white, love and betrayal. The artwork, with its dynamic style characteristic of American comics, brings to life a story set in New York featuring characters dressed in 3.1 Phillip Lim's 2012-13 Autumn/Winter collection. It's a sophisticated production that promises to captivate not only fans of 3.1 Phillip Lim but also comic book enthusiasts.

This comic book is not for sale and can only be obtained at directly managed stores in Japan. It will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis to visitors of the 3.1 Phillip Lim AOYAMA store starting Saturday, September 8th. At other directly managed stores nationwide, it will be given as a gift to customers who make a purchase, starting Sunday, September 9th. This is a premium edition that's definitely worth trying to get your hands on!
