From: vancouver.24hrs.ca For 27 years, GENE SIMMONS sat on his Moneybag trademark waiting for the perfect designer to collaborate with. So when the king of merch handpicked Vancouver's very Jason "Deuce" Dussault to work him on a line of bad ass Ts, bags and accessories, it was a pretty big deal - especially considering how much Dussault idolized the KISS bassist. The bearded clothier still remembers his first meeting with the blood-spewing musician last fall. "He had just finished getting his plastic surgery and tummy tuck," recalls Daussaltt. "So when we showed up to his house, hes had on black sunglasses and a baseball cap. His eyes were black and his face was all puffy. His whole body was bandaged up like a mummy. But that's GENE SIMMONS - you can't keep him down for long. Because he just wants to get up and start doing business. He's just a machine." Of course. Dussault is no stranger to celebrity interactions. People like Rob Zombie, Nicole Richie and Prevail of Swollen Members have been ordering tattoo-inspired, embroidered hoodies and Ts from Dussault's own label, Deuce/Dussault, since last summer. And now with this spring's launch of one-of-a-kind Dussault jewelry, for which he works very closely with traditional Haida artist James Adkins, there doesn't seem to be any stopping Dussault. "I feel like everything is happening for a reason," he says. "That's not to say there haven't been some down days or hard days. But overall there's been a lot of very exciting experiences. What can I say? I'm very fortunate." |
