Worldly Goods - NYTimes.com The Australian cosmetics label Aesop is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year by opening a crop of design-centric stores around the globe. Its founder, Dennis Pahitis, has also branched out with Épatant (33 Peel Street; 011-61-3-9417-7739), a new men's accessories shop with Aesop's utilitarian-chic ethos, in the up-and-coming Collingwood district in Melbourne. He and a co-founder, Lachlan Smeeton, refurbished an old brick bicycle warehouse, giving it whitewashed walls, polished concrete floors and a dash of whimsy courtesy of the graphic artist Anne-Laure Cavigneaux, who adorned its bright blue door with illustrations inspired by the work of the French filmmaker Jacques Tati. The space includes a cafe run by the husband-and-wife team behind Cibi, a restaurant that serves Japanese-style home cooking. But mainly it's a showcase for items that strike the owners' fancy, like supersoft calfskin weekend bags commissioned from the Paris-based leather-goods maker Isaac Reina; bikes from the Swedish company Pilen; and a pair of indigo jogging shorts designed by Paphitis himself - what he calls "a sort of 1950s Italian gent's summer look."
