S2A Belts by Josh Rubin
In their gallery / shop space in Paris, Surface 2 Air features clothes and objects that nicely blend art and fashion. Each of these woven belts, for example, look great as individual items, but when presented side by side form a single image. As far as I'm concerned, this is a most genius approach to creating limited editions. Further, each belt is one of a kind because of where the pattern lands on the piece.

Thanks, David, for helping me find the S2A store!
