R29 covers the opening of the new 3.1 Phillip Lim Store in West Hollywood with photos and an interview with the man himself; Philip Lim.

The luminous, amoeba-shaped space—gorgeously overhauled from a former auto-body shop—marks Lim’s second store in the U.S. (his third in the world), and he tells us this new 5,000 square-foot baby … feels like a sort of homecoming."
