I'm more impressed than shocked with what Nigo has done so far. It might be too presumptious to claim that he's the Andy Warhol of our century, although this guy with jewel-studded teeth bears all the hallmarks of an outrageous and flamboyant artist. Nothing was spared and that's what I admired the most. Interestingly, the Bape line's unfashionable in Japan for the last 5 years and yet it costs a fortune in Aus and US' stores. Obviously, trends in those countries are years behind Europe and Asia's.
