What's New: "Signed-by"

We have previously mentioned Triple-Major's concept store in Beijing, which stocks progressive designers like Fabrics Interseason and Daniel Palillo. In collaboration with ilivetomorrow gallery, they just opened a new store in Hong Kong called "Signed-by." It is located on 43 Tung Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong.



Signed-by proposes an unique experience in art, design, fashion, music, video and other creative mediums. It stocks experimental and innovative designs from labels like Droog Design, Molo Design and Jaime Hayon.





The concept store's fashion section is called "Triple-Major Habitat." Just like Triple-Major's store in Beijing, "Triple-Major Habitat" offers avant-garde fashion designers from around the world as well as Triple-Major's in house label. "Triple-Major Habitat" is a continuation of their nomad store project at ilivetomorrow last November. The concept of the nomad store project is to open short-term sporadic stores around the world like nomads; "Triple-Major Habitat" is symbolically where the nomads settle down.

Weekend Flea Market, Chinese Style

A new post from our Beijing Correspondent, Ritchie Chan of Triple Major -

Going to flea markets is quite a common weekend activity in L.A. Even though Beijing doesn't have anything like the Rose Bowl, locals find good ways to fit their thrifting needs.


Every weekend, Guanxin Market, located on Huagonlu in Beijing, turns into a flea market, attracting a mix of locals, vintage shoppers and foreigners. Originally set up for the lower-income locals, the market, which is located beyond the forth ring in Beijing had been quite popular among young thrifting and vintage lovers due to its relatively big size and cheap price.




How cheap? You can find shirts for $1 and watches for $3, and pretty much everything else below $5. But of course, none of these are really vintage pieces, they are more like factory outlet products or used goods.




Young photography duo, Norated, come here almost every weekend to find some old cameras for their shoots.




Not just thrifting, watching the locals in the market is such delight too since some of them have really interesting style. These two gentlemen dress really adventurously in terms of crossing gender boundaries.
