There are four of these large panel patches. American Recycling featured in the Spring Summer 2002 collection. These sheets themselves come from a 2005 archive Raf Simons exhibition in Japan. This one measures up 40 x 30cm. They are best described as 'not small'!
And, yes, well, that always was iconic. Brian Duffy's portrait of Bowie as Ziggy from Aladdin Sane (1973) first appeared as a Raf Simons design in 1996 and was revisited in 2006. Measures 37 x 38cm.
Siddhartha Returned: It was used as a back print panel and a bag in the Spring Summer 2004 collection. This one is 45 x 33cm.
And then... Diamond Co-Opted. The graphic appeared in the Spring / Summer 2003 collection. This is a big print - 48 x 61cm. Largesse. And, on closer inspection...
...signed to the corner in pen by Raf Simons.
We don't do better than this. In all great scarcity, these are exceptional. All four (including the signature) on the red button below - let's go!

SIGNED BY SALVADOR DALÍ! SCARAB NO.1. THE SUITABLY SURREAL AMAZINE OF MEN'S FASHION IN THE YEAR 2000.
Nineteen seventy-one this is. The year in which the tailors Scabal collaborated with Salvador Dalí on twelve paintings imagining menswear in the year 2000. Those paintings turned out, somewhat predictably, to be pre-historically inaccurate. They are now in the Scarab vault in Savile Row.
To announce and illustrate their genuinely surreal collaboration, a first issue of a magazine was produced under the title Scarab. No further issues were printed beyond No.1 - which you are looking at now.
Only 250 copies were made. And, as if it was not rare enough or unlikely enough already, this copy is signed large by Dalí on the title page. Making it quite special indeed. Like very, very special indeed. Buy it on the red betton below.
NOW MORE RAF SIMONS! ASTONISHINGLY RARE POSTERS AND VHS TAPES...
Err... hello! A poster from the Willy Vanderperre photographed and filmed SS02 'Woe Unto Those Who Spit On The Fear Generation... The Wind Will Blow It Back' collection. On the back of the poster are all the looks from the show. But the front - is so iconic. Measures 49.5 x 70cm. Very likely the best fashion poster we have ever seen. And it's right here.
And - bingo - the SS04 fresh-look-accessorised-white-shirt-super-poster. Magnificent! Etienne Tordoir photographs of the full collection to the reverse. Size is 48.5 x 70cm.
And then there are the TAPES! Both SS99 and AW99-00 shows. The collections look like this and this by the way. Autumn Winter is the DISORDER INCUBATION ISOLATION collection. The pair of tapes sold together. TV party like its 1999.
In entirety, we are looking at four screen prints, two VHS tapes, two posters, two look books, one very rare signed book. All of this Raf Simons archive on the green for go button below.
