as a collector, favorite ERD piece i’ve ever owned. easily.
when i first saw the ensemble on the runway, i was hooked.
unfortunately, it never released.
the closest thing to a release we saw was the liquidation of a few factory sample versions they did on the webstore.
was extremely limited.
like 2 in each size.
quite literally sold out instantly.
a guy reposted one to grailed minutes after release and it sold within an hour for $4,000 in early COVID. was one of the highest sales of the month on Grailed.
before the ch denim meta.
for these reasons, it goes without saying that this is an investment piece that is equal parts luxuriously well constructed and dementedly imaginative in design.
features artwork from the iconic Henry Darger, an artist who combined elements of surrealist fantasy and cataclysmic terror into his art. To me it’s stylistically similar to a strange combination of like, motifs from ancient Vedas artwork and 19th century nordic scribblings I would see back home in denmark at my dad’s family’s storage unit.
this is for the collectors that know.
or the individuals who, even if they’re not familiar with what they’re looking at, are smart enough to know that this is a truly high value item.
objectively one of the best items ERD ever produced, and the fact that it never saw a formal release only makes it cooler.
