This February, a new destination for fashion enthusiasts, "Ephemera," opened in the fashion capital of Paris. This is Paris's first fashion specialty bookstore, featuring a captivating selection focused on rare items.
They offer hard-to-find editions of "The Face" and "i-D," all eight issues of "Six, published by Rei Kawakubo of COMME des GARÇONS, as well as limited publications edited by Alessandro Michele during his tenure at GUCCI. Additionally, the store stocks catalogs, lookbooks, posters, invitations to fashion shows, and rare VHS tapes.
All of these items have been meticulously collected over more than 30 years by founder Pascal Monfort. As the head of the consulting company "REC" in Paris, he has cherished and preserved these valuable documents that tell the story of fashion history.
Why sell his cherished treasures? We had an in-depth conversation with Pascal, who has a deep love for fashion, about the establishment of "Ephemera" and the value it holds in modern magazines and bookstores.
