A little promotional note. Our friends of Swallows and Daggers have just launched a new line of T shirts. Check out the website, it is one of the rare tattoo-related sites I actually like!

Damir Doma calls his diffusion line “SILENT“, referring to the quiet, timeless place that the designer retreats to whenever starting a collection. For Spring 2012 he brings a slice of that tranquil aesthetic to New York city, with a pop-up store on Howard Street in Soho.

Echoing the season’s print (inspired by African bodypainting) the façade of the street-level store has been hand-painted with monochrome stripes, and the interior decorated with life-size b&w posters by the French photographed Sybille Walter.

Check it out at 22D Howard Street NYC from this week until early May.

Considering that Fashion Week pretty much looks the same everywhere we haven’t described the whereabouts of each photograph taken by Maxime. Although he did take these in Paris, Copenhagen and Berlin.

Hailed as one of the most notorious erotic novels of all times, Story of O follows the beautiful young Parisian woman as she falls into the fateful clutches of her lover’s sadomasochistic urges. She submits to the life of a slave and surrenders herself completely to the terrifying bonds of desire. The book was written in 1954 by the French author Anne Desclos under the nom de plume of Pauline Réage and in 2000 it was illustrated by the Italian comics artist Guido Crepax.

‘Keep me rather in this cage, and feed me sparingly, if you dare. Anything that brings me closer to illness and the edge of death makes me more faithful. It is only when you make me suffer that I feel safe and secure. You should never have agreed to be a god for me if you were afraid to assume the duties of a god, and we all know that they are not as tender as all that. You have already seen me cry. Now you must learn to relish my tears.’

We’re having a party in Paris for Fashion Week.
