Design by Raf Reyes: In our lives’ movies, there may have been times when we got to see or experiment utter excess, like protagonists purchasing nothing but the finest things, wearing only the finest clothes, eating at only the chic-est restaurants, and looking down on any who fall short of their standard. The inspirations/flick behind ‘Pyscho’ itself aims to portray a self-indulgent and hedonistic Wall Street elite of 1980s New York in a certain light/under a certain prism. This VR®® piece asks again nd again ‘how real and rare r U?’, ‘is being seen in the right places, with the right people, looking the right way etc. just a(nother) display of tha hollowness of tha Self after all???”.. like model citizens in a breakneck society: workin’, makin’ money, spendin’ it. truly really, veryrare’s ‘Psycho @DORSIA’ statement piece is a satire about how humans compete with each other in a hyper-real universe We created.

Pre Order. Shipping on November 20th.

Design by Raf Reyes: Raf (VERYRARE’s founder – whose official/government name is Raphael btw) personal favorite. channeling the power of Cabanel’s artwork he loves so much; thinking about the painting, it’s just so powerful. the quiet fury and resentment in the ‘fallen angel’’s  eyes, the single tear for his loss, hands clasped together in an effort to control these intense emotions boiling inside while being scorned by the angelic cohort above.. this VR  statement piece draws parallels with our era and ourselves (as protagonists) – barely containing our Anger in the aftermath of critical times’ events; when we think everything’s doomed (hence the ‘Lost Paradise’ alternative title) when, in reality, it’s not. the metallic blue drip stands for the angels’ blood poured from uptop (heard it was blue-colored), the exlibris woven is for the personal connection between You and the Piece, nd the butterflies (at the back) are symbols for hope & new beginnings, an emblem of the brand.

Each item embroidered with the buyer’s own initials.
