Acne

Part of the new design nobility who have recently moved into the Palais Royal, this Swedish collective is best known for its impeccably cut jeans. The wider world of Acne (short for Ambition to Create Novel Expressions) includes filmmaking and furniture design, as well as a striking line of men and women's clothing and accessories. Drama-cut monochromatic dresses, chunky shoes, and a new collaborative line from Lanvin.  Complete the brainwash by picking up a copy of Acne Paper, the collective's glossy coffee table mag.
