With a keen eye for slick looks, a rich taste for luxury brands, and an unorthodox strategy for appraising merchandise, Zach Coffman and Isimeme “Easy” Otabor run the boutique and conceptual retail experience at RSVP Gallery. This past weekend, the two broke away from their Chicago storefront to run a pop-up shop at ComplexCon.
We caught up with the two to talk about their new partnership with Samsung. Zach and Easy took the concept behind their airbrush T-shirt and turned it into a reality. RSVP’s booth included beach balls, sand, and palm trees that provided the perfect Long Beach aesthetic. Don C was able to grab a handful of his highly coveted Air Jordan 2 Retro Just Don Beach sneakers that were available for fans in attendance. The gallery also premiered other exclusive pieces pruned and picked just for ComplexCon fam, all of which could only be purchased through Samsung Pay.
In between moving merchandise, we sat down with the two curators and businessmen to talk innovation, the evolution of style, and the constant overlapping of pop art and grandeur goods.
