Descending the steps to the basement venue that is Super Deluxe, I was met by what can only be described as a bazaar under the asphalt of Roppongi. Packed into the space’s handful of metres was a motley but colourful collection of stalls, manned by young designers and artists, foreign and Japanese.

It was a place to buy and sell, to meet and mingle, but also just to see what was out there and to revel in it. If you like laid-back, bustling art events, then be sure to check out the next installment of Fragment. I couldn’t think of a better way to spend a rainy Sunday afternoon.
From fashion to handcrafts, there was a bit of everything, and even live painting.

There was musical accompaniment throughout the afternoon.
The other half of the venue was made into a place to sit and relax, and to enjoy some of the great ales on offer.
TAB was there with our t-shirt range. Ahem, the gentlemen in the foreground with his back rudely to the camera is our very own Paul Baron.
The event also featured the launch of document, a free art, design and fashion magazine. Be sure to pick up your copy and find TAB’s page!
