Providing an intimate portrait of Rick Owens in his own words and his own clothing, this filmic diptych, shot live during the action on set, explores Nick Knight's monograph of an American fashion legend.

Israel's daily newspaper Haaretz recently posted this great interview with influential fashion designer Rick Owens. The article gives us an in-depth look at Mr.Owens' life as he shares about his humble beginnings in L.A., his relationship with Michele Lamy, plans for an upcoming fragrance line and his thoughts on pop-culture icons wearing his clothes (oh yeah, he even calls out his own protégé Gareth Pugh on his notoriously flamboyant designs). For those of you who have been faithful fans since day one, the article doesn't offer anything new, but for the rest of you here's a great chance to get caught up on one of today's hottest designers. Check it.
