Make yr crib 73.3% more popping w/ rare Ellen Van Dusen wisdom
The home-goods wizard behind Dusen Dusen shares Mach 3+ intel
Ellen Van Dusen — pictured here with a bunch of her creations and 10/10 pupper Snips — has been a BLACKBIRD SPYPLANE HOMEY since 2010, when she launched her apparel line Dusen Dusen. BBSP co-pilot Erin spotted Ellen’s stuff, deemed it fly, hollered at her & they wound up doing a line of hand-painted wool coats together called DUSEN WYLIE — the collection consisted entirely of slappers, which u can read about in this 2010 story at The Cut. Unsurprisingly they sold the f**k out because BLACKBIRD SPYPLANE NEVER MISSES, IN ANY OF ITS FORMS…!!!
Since then Ellen has expanded into home goods & a ton more collaborations. She sells towels & blankets thru Design Within Reach and MoMA; collaborated with Keds on sneakers & with UNIQLO on t-shirts; put out some killer chairs with designers Brendan Timmins (below left) and Eric Trine (right)…
…. and she made a cool sweater that Harry Styles wore on SNL last fall while pretending to be a dog??
Now, 12-53 times daily we get desperate messages from readers saying, “PLEASE BLACKBIRD SPYPLANE HELP ME SPYPLANE THE CRIB.” Since we are the No. 1 source across all media for “unbeatable recon” into dope-under-the-radar joints, and since Ellen is a CERTIFIED HOME-GOODS GOD, we asked her to tell us about some of her own rare & cherished CRIB GRAILS and to share mathematical tips on how to get yr own home’s “popping quotient” 73.3% more higher…
She sparked things off by sending over pictures of some wild-flames FLATWARE:
