For its 29-item Holiday 2012 collection, NARS cosmetics took inspiration from pop artist Andy Warhol and was not only informed by the color palette of Warhol’s paintings, but also his films and the people who filled his famous Factory art space. The influence is reflected in the above video, which makes clear reference to his 8mm films.
For all our readers in Tokyo: During a three-day pop-up store at Sunday Issue you’ll get the chance to experience and purchase the Nars x Warhol line from November 29th-December 1st.

It’s been almost five years since one of London’s best multi-brand shops opened its doors. To celebrate its fifth anniversary, GoodHood teamed up with London Design Festival to commemorate local design and creativity. Partners like Antipodium, Norse Projects, R. Newbold and Bag ‘N’ Noun collaborated with Good Hood to produce an exclusive collection and , for the first time the retailer will introduce its own line of products.
Kyle Stewart, Co-Owner of The Goodhood Store says:
“The Goodood Store was born out of a design background so we wanted to celebrate by creating must have products with many of our suppliers. To house the project we decided to open a stand alone space on the Shoreditch backstreet we’ve became synonymous with and create products that represent the synergy of our brand.”
All of it will be launched on September 14 in a pop-up space in Shoreditch. As litte foretaste we have exclusive pictures of the Antipodium for GoodHood collection for you to check out after the jump.

A new video with Chloe Sevigny, showing some of her favorite goodies from her collaborative collection swith Opening Ceremony. The selection includes outfits that are all available in the London Pop-up store as well as online. An inset splitscreen and saturated hues give the video a voyeuristic 90s look, but in the end it turns out that of course the video was shot professionally by William Strobeck. Soundtrack comes from Colony Farm. Well done!

Via Refinery we learn lingerie brand The Lake & Stars is collaborating with Nike on an Air Force I, which has to be on some top-ten list in terms of unexpected partnerships. In this image, one of the The Lake & Stars designers is working with Nike employee Weston on choosing the color and detailing for the custom pair so it’s highly unlikely that you’re seeing the finished shoe as opposed to a an office sample used to work against in building the collaboration.
The shoe is being built for the The Lake & Stars pop up store, which is set to launch on November 10th. The slight hitch with the pop-up we learned from Racked yesterday, is the sponsoring organization, BOFFO, used up all it’s money on Nicola Formichetti’s pop up and may not have enough cash to do any more pop ups. One hopes it all works out–wanna see the sneakers!

Everyone is getting in on the pop-up shop concept, including the Girl Scouts. This year between March 14-May 5th, you can purchase Samoas, Thin Mints, Do-Si-Dos, Trefoils, Tagalongs and Lemon Chalet Cremes at $4 a box at shops located in all five boroughs of New York. I’m a Tagalong (the peanut butter ones) woman myself, but according to the Girl Scouts, last year’s most popular cookie was the Somoa, followed closely by Thin Mints and then Trefoils.

Colette launched its pop-up shop with Colette last week and we noticed that among planned events was an appearance by artist Fafi to customize Chanel bags. As delightful a match as Chanel and Colette are, adding artist Fafi to the mix is liking adding hot fudge to the sundae so of course Highsnobiety was on hand to document the event. See many more images on the next page.

We already posted some images from the Colette X Chanel pop-up shop and here via photographer Olivier Saillant are some more, which give a wider angle on how the shop is set up and merchandised. Looks a sheer delight, well done as always by Colette and props to Chanel for taking a chance and extending the brand in an edgier direction. More on the next page. Images courtesy of Colette.

Get into the holiday spirit with Claw, who will be on hand to host a pop-up shop at Grast, located in New York’s Port Authority. Ms. Money will be selling new items like the ashtray above, plus her totes, key chains and sunglasses, some of which are featured on the next page, along with the event flyer. Via Hearty.

I popped by the ColetteXGap store earlier today to see what all the hype was about. There wasn’t tons of people in there–as you can see from the images–but the people who were there all seemed fairly fashionable. The space was smaller than I expected, as was the number of product offerings, but I’m guessing this is a quality over quantity situation. As well, there isn’t much there that’s cheap and some things, like a $24 bottle of blue nail polish, caused me some to mentally reach for my heart Frand-Sanford style. But oh well, it’s Colette so it’s worth it, right?

So what’s left? I’m told that certain things like the Longchamp bags are sold out and will NOT be returning. There’s less certainty about other items. For example, the Claw collabo tee was there and is now gone (sob!), but the women working the register weren’t positive if those would be restocked. They said there was a new shipment coming that evening, but they had no idea what it would include. And while it was quiet there on a Wednesday evening, no doubt it will get quite packed on the weekend. One employee told me that on the first day when she arrived there was a line around the block and it was still there when she left not long before closing.
