The life and times of Alyssa Vincent, a library science student. |
Your closet ain’t got nothing on this one: http://www.refinery29.com/inside-albright-fashion-library-in-nyc
7,000 pairs of shoes, arranged by Pantone colors. That’s also the same number of square feet the closet has. So, how did this library happen? Irene and Marina Albright basically just started collecting clothes back in the ’80s and haven’t stopped since, buying 1,2000 pieces a year on average. Whether it’s a dress from Alaia or a gown from Dior, this duo has it, and they’re willing to rent it out.
One last link, because much like Depeche Mode, I just can’t get enough: http://www.nbcnewyork.com/blogs/threadny/THREAD-Dream-Closet-at-Cooper-Union-90227337.html
