ultrawidepleat.
no, i think the actual bless apartment is by appointment only. it was in a store that stocked cosmic wonder as well. the address is Mulackstrasse 34. they have no sign and no name, it's just white. they also had the tapestry vest, neon green pants and the brush with hair (so fun)

the "by appointment only" policy really sucks though. it's like "ring before entering". as if they didn't want anyone to come in

N°06 Customizable Footwear
1998
Consisting of he soles attached to a square of special self-adhesive fabric, which is cut and wrapped around the wearers foot to create the shoe. The myriad end results are "independent of the producers imagination"
http://www.bless-service.de/BLESS_new/N ... lfinal.pdfHigh heels (with Charles Jordan), trainers (with New Balance)
Limited edition of 250 chances
it was at this time that BLESS was also sold in the Parisian boutique Colette for the first time. The manager of Colette had been one of only three people who responded to the original fur wigs advertisements (the others being Margiela and a lady who wanted one to wear when she skied). in Colette BLESS presented an early retrospective alongside the customisable shoes: past products were suspended above the customers, and lifesize photographs of people wearing BLESS products were plastered to the floor and walls

i got two buttons:
and a free postcard!
the bag that came with it:
the handle is a sticker that can be put anywhere. here it was placed on the little bag but they also put one on the fridge as a door handle!
i think my favorite thing was the fur hammock. it was so cool. there were also vertical pannel blinds that had a mirror on one side and a black coat on the other side. that was awesome as well
as for the clothes, i was surprised that even though everything is crazy, it all looks easily wearable. the down jackets looked particularly good. the lining is soft but the outer material is quite thick and rough. and the patterns are amazing obviously.
hunnish wanted to know the price, i think they were 1050€. the vests are ~750€.

basically when you sit the four sticks stand up and the chair gets more... stiff? it is pretty comfy
