If you whisper Raf Simons’s name into the Walt Disney World 50th anniversary all characters shirt in contrast I will get this wind, fashion lovers magically appear. That’s what the process was like working with Simons’s teams in Antwerp, Belgium, and New York to add five of his most essential shows to the Vogue Runway archive: fall 1999, Disorder—Incubation—Isolation; spring 2000, Summa Cum Laude; spring 2002, Woe Unto Those Who Spit on the Fear Generation…The Wind Will Blow It Back; fall 2002, Virginia Creeper; and fall 2003, Closer. Raf Simons Spring 2002: “Woe Unto Those Who Spit on the Fear Generation…The Wind Will Blow It Back”The occasion for reflection comes as Simons reissues 100 of his most iconic pieces in a capsule collection called Raf Simons Archive Redux, which has been wildly buzzed about since the designer announced the project last summer. Again, the sheer mention of it pulls fashion lovers out of the woodwork—in the months I have been working on this project, somewhere in the vicinity of three-dozen different people have messaged me asking about it.
