New Rome getting some love

Today was a good day for New Rome. First we finally arrived at Blue and Cream here in New York City. Check the store out @ 11 E 1st St, New York. Or on the web HERE.

That wasn't it for the day though. New Rome also got featured on a site that is a personal favorite of mine, ctothejl.com. We are real excited about this and thanks go out to all who are due. Check out the coverage here and of course you can always find it on our press page.

Let the young take the night - October 4th

Saturday October 4th, New Rome Clothing hosted a wild night of musical performances with DJ Swaaan killing it with his 90's jams and Indian Giver took the crowd with their eclectic mash ups, from their blog-distributed mixtape 'Taking it all Back." Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy the night. Stay tuned as we bring it all back to Public Assembly for a January showcase.

The MC for the night

City Shrinker

Ben Thomas is the city shrinker and he makes the ordinary seem amazing. In his own words:

You see amazing things every day. It could be out the window of the train on your way to work, it could be in your back yard, even better it could be somewhere completely foreign, something you didnt know existed. My aim is to give that feeling of newness with each shot I take. My method is to take what was once large and shrink it down to model size. To take the familiar and get you thinking even if for a second "wait a minute, is that..."


Born 1981 in Adelaide Australia, Ben Thomas developed his creative itch playing jazz trumpet then moving onto filming the local bands he grew up admiring. Ben later graduated from the International Design Effects and Animation School (Adelaide) before picking up a still camera and a new city, Melbourne. Ben is constantly evolving the techniques he employs to bring about a style that is not only creative but fun.

These photos look like they are of scale models but it is a trick of the eye. I think they are beautiful, see for yourself.
