just when you thought you had left all the adolescent blemishes behind, they creep up once again. the difference? the opening of acne jeans is actually a cause for celebration.

fresh on the heels of the big bang opening in new york (attended by super fans chlöe sevigny and model caroline winsome), acne jeans is getting the royal treatment with its new paris studio. joining marc jacobs and rick owens in the prestigious palais royal, it's the perfect launch pad to introduce their legendary tube jeans here. the brand's creative director jonny johansson used designer david hallen to create a definite swedish design influence in the très tradish setting. bold marble floors with scandinavian mod furniture show off the cool collection of casual wear and accessories for men and women. try on some spring styles like the oversized cardis and bubble dresses. but don't forget to pick up the latest copy of their fashion rag, acne paper, with contributors glenn o'brien, gregg gorman and patrick li.

you were always the cool kid in school. show them you haven't changed.
