New York Magazine has an interesting read covering the rise of international retailer Opening Ceremony and its founders, Humberto Leon and Carol Lim. In the article, the duo tells us how they quit their day jobs and opened up shop at 35 Howard Street, a block which was quite reserved back in 2001. Nearly a decade later, Opening Ceremony has expanded rapidly (or to them, right on schedule) with outposts in Los Angeles and Tokyo as well.
The piece is definitely worth reading so check it out here and let us know your thoughts.

Love Opening Ceremony! Wish they opened at store in San Francisco hahah
ha, you’ll have to make a trip over to LA to get your fix. You never know though, SF is a really cool place right now, won’t be surprised if they open up a shop there!
