Three years have passed since he temporarily suspended his eponymous brand. As an unprecedented special event, "RAF SIMONS" will hold a limited-time sales event featuring its archives at "Dover Street Market GINZA".
At this event, Raf Simons himself will be presenting a selection of rare and precious pieces from his collection that spans about 30 years, including the "Kollaps" and "Riot Riot Riot" collections that are representative of the brand's early years, the collaboration with artist Sterling Ruby, and the "Twin Peaks" collection. The exhibition will feature rare and precious pieces carefully selected by Raf Simons himself.
In addition to clothing, a number of extremely rare items from the archives will also be on display at the event.
The collection includes a special box containing VHS tapes of footage from the first nine shows, early invitations including the iconic Black Palms record-shaped invitations, an original lookbook of Virginia Creeper, a collaboration with David Sims on "Isolated Heroes" original photographs, and a lineup of posters, books, and selected printed materials.
These are rare gems that tell the story of an important chapter in Raf Simons' history and are nearly impossible to find on the secondary market.
In addition to early and mid-season pieces, seasonal items from just before the brand went on hiatus will also be on sale. Visitors can experience the creative world of "Raf Simons" in a broad and consistent way.
The exhibition will run from Monday, December 29, 2025 to Sunday, January 18, 2026. On the first day, Monday, December 29, Raf Simons himself will visit Dover Street Market GINZA and hold a signing for archive purchasers from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.
This is an extremely rare opportunity to come in direct contact with the designers themselves, who have had a tremendous impact on the fashion world. We hope you will visit the venue.
