For the Love of All that is timeless, edgy…

Commes des Garcons collection debuts at H&M

When dissected from their imaginative styling, the quirky, yet very wearable pieces designed by Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons for H&M are coming to a price point for you!

Once upon a time, there was a certain fashion shorthand to show that you were in the ‘club’: A Helmut Lang (the man, not the brand) jacket, a Martin Margiela sweater, some Prada shoes, and a Commes de Garcons shirt or two. Sprinkle in some Hermes accessories, a Cartier piece of jewelry, a pair of well-worn jeans, and there you have it, the iconic wardrobe of the fashion insider albeit photographer, art director, gallery owner, interior designer, talent agent, or stylist.

But here’s the amazing thing about being iconic, it’s style that is timeless and, in this case, edgy enough to never be boring.

“I thought it would be an exciting event to work with H&M in order to sell Comme des Garçons clothes in places where they have never been sold and to appeal to people who may not yet understand Comme des Garçons", says Rei Kawakubo, Comme des Garçons.

The H&M by Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons (French for "like boys") men’s and women’s clothing collection plus some key shoes and bag pieces will be debuting at H&M’s new Tokyo store on November 8th, then entering approximately 200 stores worldwide on November 13th.

There will be quite the stylish crowd at H&M on opening day, I am sure of that!
