MomiMomi by Josh Rubin

Momimomi Faces

Born in New York in 2001 and now based in LA, MomiMomi makes t-shirts that are buttery soft, perfectly fitting and phenomenally styled. In their own words:

MomiMomi (moe-me, moe-me) is a t-shirt lab concentrating on designs of simplicity and comfort, the aim of our work is to conflate graphics and wear-ablity. That is, we seek to treat the t-shirt as a billboard for the body, developing imagery that both acknowledges and highlights the human form, and subverts conventional perceptions of it.

And what does MomiMomi mean? It's Japanese and means 'anything you can do with two hands.' It has both innocent and dirty inferences, but is generally used when describing a massaging feeling. I think it describes how I felt when I put one on yesterday-- mm, mm good.

P.A.M. x Undercover Shade Lamp
Using macabre imagery to form an eerily symbolic sculptural piece, Jun Takahashi of Undercover joined forces with P.A.M. to create the Shade Lamp. The scene depicts a tree growing out of (or through?) a skull in a cemetery somewhere with the branches (fittingly) holding the shade. For mood lighting, I like the green and gold eyes, but my favorite part of the lamp has...
