Note the obscured face on that T-shirt. That belongs to Spike Jonze, 35-mm photographer, film and music video director, Oscar-winning screenwriter and, increasingly, contributing pal to Opening Ceremony.
Last season, Mr. Jonze interpreted the Opening Ceremony story, staging a one-act play on the retailer-turned-label’s history for its show; this season, Carol Lim and Humberto Leon returned the favor, using their fall presentation to curate a one-night only show of his early photos, 1985-2005. (The eagle-eyed could spot Chloë Sevigny, Keanu Reeves, Björk, the Beastie Boys, BMX legends and Kurt Cobain throughout.)
The photos lined the walls, but that wasn’t all. Ms. Lim and Mr. Leon cut up outtake photos to make prints for the O.C. garb, and subjected doodled-on contact sheets to the same treatment.
