These Rick Owens silk pants were marred by a burrito lunch during September NYFW in 2018 (major grease stains, still visible after two rounds of dry cleaning). I worked backstage for the Marina Moscone and Opening Ceremony presentations that season.
Blockprinted lines in a contrasting pattern covered the stain and added a knee patch look. Nothing ends up perfect, no two things look the same. This is why blockprinting has quickly become one of my favorite easy remake methods.
It’s not about the clothes – it’s what we do in them.
