Heist Store launch
Remember the days when sneaking a peek at your Christmas presents required a series of capers involving younger siblings, your dog, and prank calls to your own house? Well, these days even the opening of a new clothing store can provide the sensation of sticking it to the ‘big people' in charge.
The appropriately named Heist Store, opening this week on Little Latrobe Street, works on the premise of exclusively importing rare, quality threads in an attempt to whisk misguided masses away from the evils of chain-store shopping.
And, unlike the dingy recesses of your mother's wardrobe, blind rummaging is not necessary as booty is displayed in sleek, minimal style.
Brands like Crash One, Coup De Grace, Crooks & Castles, Heights NYC, Know1edge, Orisue, LRG, Reason, Still Life, Rip Off & Duplicate, IHMDJ, Levis (Japan Vintage) will grace the hangers, with Hellz Bellz and Married To The Mob for the girlies. There is also talk of showing works from local Melbourne artists like Jagi and Bonsai.
The store launches this Friday night with DJs Dexter (where's he been all this time?), J-Red, Cluso, and Mu-gen on the tunes. Incognito optional.
