Historic revivals in decorative arts have been riding the awesome-by-association train for centuries.
Elements of Egyptian forms and decoration first started to appear in Europe and later in America after Napoleon's conquests in Egypt and the subsequent scientific study of those expeditions which was published during the 19th century. Egyptian style saw its next heyday in the s after the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb. You could also replace "discovery" with "that time this English bro broke into and robbed a religious burial room of an ancient foreign society for profit.
The rest of the store, and the clothes, don't do much better. This is unfortunate, as my first thought on hearing that stylistic choice was, "what part of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel would he decide to have in his store? What the fuck could any of Michelangelo's brightly colored beefy Bible bodies that have to do with this black and gold Ancient Egypt-inspired pompousas hell t-shirt shop?
And while I'd like to be able to make some more high brow digs at whatever his choice was, it's really besides the point because of course, NOTHING from the Sistine Chapel makes any sense on the ceiling there. It's not even about expectations of there being a bigger picture behind the decorative choices of a clothes store; it's just an ugly mish-mash of really loaded decoration.
Fundamentally, it's just bad design. While it's not exactly fair to expect a mind blowing take on interior design from the guy responsible for "Rack City," I've already pointed to examples of rap and thoughtful design existing symbiotically.
Recently, Kanye West's stylistic debt to Alejandro Jodorowsky and the movie The Holy Mountain for the Yeezus tour has been widely discussed by critics and by Kanye himself. Using monumental design to play into to themes of godliness, power, and self discovery without plain image-snatching speaks louder and hits stronger than Tyga's corny layering of imagery could ever hope to achieve.
And what about the clothes? What can we expect from a designer who's store looks like a busted Greek diner from the outside with an interior that picks up Egyptian style in a way that's reminiscent of the Cheesecake Factory?
