What are the 5 Raf Simons pieces to invest in?
of his 27-year old label? Linton is the co-founder of the 2013-founded personal shopping app and e-commerce platform, which connects die-hard vintage sellers and collectors worldwide, and specialises in “contemporary vintage” – pieces from the ’80s onwards.
“When we launched Byronesque, we found an emerging subculture of Raf’s subculture,” Linton explains, comparing the dedication of Simons’s youth culture-invested collectors to that of trainspotters. “Except, far from the solitude and calm of trainspotting, this group was rife with ego and infighting, as though the act of collecting was more addictive than the pieces themselves.”
She continues: “It’s only by looking back that we really appreciate what was happening at the time. Often something overlooked or misunderstood is revered decades later. And, as we’ve all matured along with the ‘vintage’ market, so, it seems, has the Raf collector.” In 2018, a Riot Riot Riot jacket from the Raf Simons autumn/winter 2001-2002 collection sold for a record $47,000. “The dust and the comedy prices have settled,” she says.
