Bondi Label The People Vs. Has Opened a Bali Store
The Sydney streetwear label has opened their second flagship store in Seminyak.
When Sydney-based streetwear label The People Vs. started out in 2013, they set up a small boutique space in Seminyak. Four years later, and a year after opening their first Australian flagship shop in Bondi Beach, they're back to launch their own Bali outlet.
It's both a return to their roots and a big leap forward for the brand, with their first bricks-and-mortar venture overseas dubbed their "premiere global concept store". The People Vs. Seminyak continues their recent run of success, with the label currently stocked at more than 30 retailers in Australia, New York and Japan.
Indeed, if you've wondered where their vintage-esque grunge style was born, wonder no longer: it was here. Time spent scouring Seminyak flea markets, and experimenting with techniques — washing, dying and printing included — helped them to develop the nostalgic blend of surf, punk, rock and streetwear they're known for today.
While they can't be accused of following a trend, The People Vs. is the latest Sydney joint to turn Bali into their second home of late. Restaurateur Maurice Terzini unveiled the Italian Riveria-style Da Maria last year, while restaurant and bar Mrs Sippy just recently made the jump.
