'A Thousand Things' Book Launch Recap!

3rd June 2008
A THOUSAND THINGS - THE LONDON LAUNCH
Paul Weller - A Thousand Things

Paul Weller’s A Thousand Things celebrated its launch last night at the flagship Paul Smith store in Covent Garden, London. Copies of the limited edition were on display alongside framed photographs from the book, all set to the backdrop of Paul Smith’s handsome clothes. Weller released his new album, ‘22 Dreams’ the same day but, although very busy, both Paul and Sir Paul Smith took the time to sign an Epiphone Casino guitar donated by Gibson that will be auctioned for charity later this year. A Thousand Things proved very popular with the guests, among them Genesis designer Simon Halfon and author Geoff MacCormack whose travels with Bowie from 1973-76 are the subject of his signed limited edition, From Station to Station. Noted photographers such as Lawrence Watson and Pennie Smith mingled with musicians from Hard-Fi and The Kaiser Chiefs, as well as footballer Lee Dixon, and DJs Gary Crowley and Eddie Piller, all coming together in respect for the Modfather.

Genesis would like to thank everyone at Paul Smith for hosting the event and all those that attended.
A Thousand Things can be purchased at Genesis Publications.

Paul Weller's New Fashion Line! "Real Stars Are Rare"

Info via: RealStarsAreRare.com REAL STARS ARE RARE is a new menswear label from Paul Weller.  The collection has been designed by Paul in a collaboration with Phil Bickley , owner of Tonic, a menswear store in West London. The Autumn/ Winter 2014 launch collection includes tailoring, knitwear, shirting and accessories. There’s no ‘considered demographic’. REAL STARS ARE RARE is for men of all ages. Great care has gone into sourcing the best possible materials and fabrics. The collection works together, crossing over between formalwear and sharp casuals. There’s fluidity here. It’s all about movement and texture. We’ve got 33 gauge wool Merino knits and super fine kid mohair jackets and trousers that feel as special as they look. Our tight, considered colour palette features purple, indigo, plum and bright blues alongside rich, chocolate tones and cool greys. REAL STARS ARE RARE has been in the planning, you could say, for forty years. Ever since a kid from Woking fi...
