Swatch Collaborate With Kidrobot

By Reem in : Accessories, Designers, Events, Fashion // Aug 26 2011

On wednesday I attended a brilliant event to launch a collaboration with two of my favourite brands. Swatch and Kidrobot. They’ve teamed up to create a collection of 9 watches each designed by a different Kidrobot artist. I was very excited to be able to watch Kidrobot designer, MAD, design a giant ‘Dunny’ to be displayed in the Swatch window at their One New Change store.

My boyfriend @egothieves and I are massive Kidrobot fans and have been collecting different characters for a while, so I decided to buy him the ‘Swatch- Shout Out’ designed by MAD, and kindly asked him to sign the box and mini ‘Dunny’. (Egothieves was happy).

After snapping some pics and getting my purchase signed, we headed upstairs to Madison’s rooftop terrace to enjoy some drinks and canapés. More specifically I watched everyone else enjoy drinks and canapés as I was still fasting at this point. It didn’t matter though because the views of St Pauls Cathedral and the sunset were unbelievable! (After the sun set I enjoyed my steak and chips and mini burger).
