Takashi goes Old School- Louis Vuitton Style
(Pic credit: Kanye West via his blog)
Nigo opened the first Bape Store in LA yesterday and everyone showed up… of course you have Kanye West and buddy Pharrell Williams, Nicole Richie, Joel Madden, Jermaine Dupri, and Pete Wentz, but our eyes were on Takashi Murakami.
Nice headband! Reminded me of another “Farrell”. Murakami got one cause he’s Murakami, but they aren’t available yet here in the US. They’ll be released as a entire gym set… complete with headband, wristbands, and towel to wipe the sweat of your elliptical.
P.S. Can someone please explain to me who owns what… I mean, I know BBC is a Pharrell Williams/ Nigo collaboration- but that E-Online article calls the LA Bape Store, Pharrell’s and doesn’t even mention Nigo in passing. And what about Kanye West’s Pastelle?

BBC/Ice Cream are Pharrell’s lines. He collabs with Nigo on them. Bape is all Nigo. I guess because they work so closely together, they just assumed. But poor Nigo. He should get credit where credit’s due! BBC wouldn’t be what it is without Nigo.
