Sagittarius Slay Lips Shirt, Hoodie And Sweater

They hadn’t seen them before. And it was so cool to imagine that Chanel tie-dyed the Sagittarius Slay Lips Shirt, Hoodie And Sweater herself. Then Virginie incorporates tie-dye into the collection. You'll see there's a tie-dye T-shirt—everything has its roots in the history that Virginie re-does in a cool way. And just for fun, Virginie showed me the drawers with the little tiny first No. 5 bottles and little travel kits. And it’s just magic to see that it all exists in this archive. As with all of his subjects, Rubinstein approaches everyone with a considered sense of curiosity, meticulously retelling the stories behind the clothing and accessories. In one instance, he photographs a man with huge jeans that are made entirely from collected Deadhead patches, while another wears a tie-dye shirt with holes that he’s had since the ’80s. “If I stop a guy, I’m like, ‘Oh, that shirt is so cool. It is like a Calvin and Hobbes comic, but it is like a Dead thing.’ The guy is like, ‘Oh, yeah. I got this at The Lot in 1980 in Boulder. I got it for my daughter but she never fit into it. It has some holes but glad you appreciate it,’” says Rubinstein. “I have to stop and listen to them, and be patient and listen.” It’s time well spent—he doesn’t miss a beat.
