Richard Haines’ Broadsheet
Hot Off The Press
Our friend and Fashion Illustrator Richard Haines came up with an idea to create a broadsheet, the first issue of What I Saw Today, the newspaper! He told us that the project came about in June when he was in Europe “sitting in cafe in Paris during fashion week and my friend Isaac Hindin-Miller suggested it…” It’s a composite of his drawings from the S/S 2014 Men’s collections of several designers including Damir Doma, Carven, Dries Van Noten, Raf Simons, Ami, Kenzo, Prada, Zegna, A.P.C., Jil Sander and many more.
Richard tells us that “Something about print and newspaper felt really exciting — kind of going back to a simple media.” As a big fan of Mr. Haines’s work I am so into this project — the idea of seeing Richards drawings printed in a big spread turns me on immensely. Richard told me that he’s “given a few of the newspapers to people and they love holding it, I want to use it as poster. I hope to do it every season then make it into a book…”
The best part is that he’s going to hand them out during New York Fashion Week, he wouldn’t tell me where exactly, so I suggest you follow him on Twitter and Instagram and track him down… or buy it here.
