下北沢に店を構える巨大ハイヒールが目印の「HAIGHT & ASHBURY」という古着屋をご存知だろうか。メンズ、ウィメンズ、アンティークと古着好きにはたまらないいヴィンテージ ショップ。毎年恒例「HAIGHT NIGHT VOL.13」が、6月28日に開催された。下北沢のライブハウス「THREE & BASEMENT BAR」を会場に、多くのヴィンテージアディクターが集結(2010年の様子はコチラ!)。
The energetic youth of Tokyo were out en masse for Friday night’s Haight Night VOL.13, the annual party held by Haight & Ashbury in the inner city Tokyo suburb Shimo Kitazawa where they’re based. Stocking a unique mix of American Vintage alongside Victorian-period and goth-loli style dresses has helped Haight & Ashbury become one of a number of tores in Tokyo with a loyal customer following, some of which you’d only ever see out at their event. This was the 3rd time I’ve been (see the Disposable Lives ‘HAIGHT NIGHT’ photos here), and although the faces were predominantly new the festival-like energy was just as I’d remembered it.
