Other stores. Corso Umberto I Italy. Foot District. Carol and Humberto meet every Sunday to hash out a business plan over dim sum — cheung fun shrimp rice rolls , turnip cakes, chive dumplings, and pork buns — at Jing Fong on Elizabeth Street. The hard part is coming up with a name.
Humberto : It had to be rooted in the idea of travel. Carol : They all seemed so pretentious. Humberto : We thought we were loaded. They find their way to a pro bono business adviser at Pace University, where they get help drafting a real business plan. Basically, we think all our friends are going to want to hang out and shop until two. Carol : We still have the version with the lazy Susan. Periodically, men would come into the store confused and ask Carol for a massage.
She would refuse. Claire Danes : I grew up on Crosby … [The flagship] was a special little spot. By the time you finally got there, your mind was happily blown. Humberto throws himself a raucous 27th-birthday celebration in the empty space. It turns into a demolition party when guests tag the walls with graffiti and jump from the balcony, breaking through to the bathroom. The store opens its doors. Michael Stipe is one of the first customers. Carol and Humberto work the floor, ring up sales, take out the trash, and even chase after shoplifters.
Carol : For a long time, even if we were both there, we would greet the customer and then we would go to our office in the back.
We wanted to let people look. We thought it was totally normal until one day someone stole five leather pieces from the mezzanine.
I started crying. Humberto : Carol and I are from Southern California, and having a sweatshirt in your car is absolutely essential. My mom is an amazing seamstress — she worked in garment factories — so we enlisted her to help us. We wanted something really graphic that could stand out without actually having to print anything, which would require extra money.
We started with a run of 50; they were there with us on the first day the store opened, and they sold out within the first week. Patrik Ervell, designer and friend: When the store first opened, it was also a place to hang out. People would come by and play music. There were always people working in the back.
It was almost a weird precursor to WeWork in a strange way. Kids star Leo Fitzpatrick would use their fax machine and have scripts sent to the store. Designer Benjamin Cho would come in to sketch, while his sister, Cathy, studied for her medical exams. Shu Hung who would go on to work at Nike and then Uniqlo as global creative director starts a magazine called In with Ken Miller, which is based in the back of the store. Brian Phillips, who would go on to found Black Frame, the fashion PR firm that also represented the brand, starts an art-consulting company there.
They travel to Brazil on a buying trip, find plastic flip-flops called Havaianas in a grocery store, and fill their suitcases with them.
Olivia Kim is hired as the first employee. In , she would join Nordstrom and is now VP of creative projects. Olivia Kim : The first day they left me alone in the store, I was by myself and like a thousand people came in, so I locked the door. I was like, What if all these people just grab clothes and run out of here! Humberto : Carol and I had a really crazy idea that the minute we ran up that millionth-dollar transaction, we were going to throw confetti at this person.
We had also been collecting this goody bag of everything we loved that we were going to hand them. It happened to be someone we knew. As soon as she paid and we rang up her credit card, we threw all this confetti over her head. It was kind of a hilarious mess. After working with only their friends, Carol and Humberto do their first brand collaboration, with Nike, for the Olympics.
They invite each designer and artist they carry to create a unique item, turning the entire store into a Nike shop called Souvenir. They bring Topshop to the U. Carol : When we approached [Topshop], the idea was completely foreign to them because they had never wholesaled their clothing before. But to us and our friends, Topshop was a crucial part of the London fashion experience.
They bring Acne and Cheap Monday to the U. Carol : I first noticed Acne when we were in Berlin in We started selling the whole collection at the store, along with other Swedish brands like Cheap Monday.
They are one of the first to sell Alexander Wang, who shopped at the store while a student at Parsons. OC opens its first branch in L. Humberto : We had to have a lot of talks with the staff. Carol : We had to have a big staff meeting in New York. We had a major conversation. We were so pissed! We took it so personally. Jacky Tang is hired as manager.
