If David Bowie wore a shirt that we'd designed we would pretty much shit our pants. Wouldn't you? It's David Bowie! Ziggy Stardust! The Thin White Duke who's in everyone's favourite childhood movie and sang the best song to ever come out of a television series! Shitting. Our. Pants.
Rachel Comey wasn't though. She was like, "Really? Oh, well I might make some more shirts then." And she did, along with some pants, jackets, dresses and, most recently, shoes. Absolutely delightful shoes that look so good you simply must touch them, then wear them. Available in Black or Whiskey Brown, they've just arrived at Our Spot. Apparently they're for men, but in the spirit of Bowie we say gender rules be damned - give us the Oxfords.

SixThousand is a subcultural guide to Perth, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Perth writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence SixThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
