I find it funny that the founder and head designer is Italian, but.... why not, I guess.

I wonder if the type of people opening retail establishments nowadays have pure cortisol coursing through their veins.

Hey Joe,

I think it's true: retailers must have pure cortisol in their veins to open any store, much less one like this, in today's economic environment.

I grew up with Japan imitating US culture. So I guess it's about time that it was turned around. Though it wouldn't be the first time. I remember being taught that Japanese woodblock prints influenced the impressionists (you can see it in Van Gogh). So why not anime and manga culture influencing Italian fashion retail? Hail Globalization.

Best,
Mark
