We wanted to give you one of the first looks at BOFFO Building Fashion’s second installation this season: Irene Neuwirth and Marc Fornes/THEVERYMANY. (Nicola Formichetti was the first which we profiled here)

The golden latticework was digitally designed as flat pieces and riveted together to from this organic, dare we say, Snork village. To see it in person is spectacular not just to understand the structure itself but to marvel at the gemstones from Neuwirth’s collection. We spoke to her briefly at the opening about how she decided on Forbes. “I had five architects to choose from and I was instantly hooked with Marc.  His design looked like jewelry and the color was really incredible. This has been the best experience. I sat down today and can't believe it came to reality!”  We were eager to talk to Marc himself about the design but his wife went into labor an hour before the event so needless to say he was preoccupied.

Store hours will be; Monday – Saturday from 12 PM – 7 PM and Sundays 12 PM – 6 PM with press previews and special events throughout the span of the series.

Located at 57 Walker Street the installation will be open until October 12th.
