Brand Information:
One of Comme des Garçons’ earliest diffusion lines is TRICOT Comme des Garçons, which is nowadays led by Tao Kurihara – a very talented, yet overlooked designer. Before Kurihara’s arrival, the TRICOT collections were designed by Rei Kawakubo herself, and Junya Watanabe. Kawakubo saw a lot of potential in the young Central Saint Martins graduate, so she made her the head designer of TRICOT Comme des Garçons. Kurihara has designed so many beautiful, innovative, and truly historical collections for both TRICOT and Tao Comme des Garçons – another diffusion line given to Tao Kurihara by Rei Kawakubo. To me, Tao is special for her experimental approach to material and fabric. A good example is her last collection for Tao Comme des Garçons where all looks were made of handkerchiefs. Another example is actually our own Decomposing Jacket from 2005, where the fabric is meant to dissolve over time, thus changing the look and character of the jacket in a linear progression. I’ve said before, in the Comme des Garçons section, that Rei Kawakubo’s artistic universe is very much one of impermanence, and the above is clearly in keeping with this. In general, I think that the Japanese stylists’ avant-garde asks us a key question time and again: in the modern world, can we expect clothes to be immutable? Perhaps the sustainable transition of fashion is that we get used to the fact that the lifespan of clothes is longer than we think.

Sizes:

Since a large portion of our garments are Japanese, the size you will see is almost always different from the marked size. In order to be as precise as possible, we have created a size chart more suitable for the average size range of our customers. We put a disclaimer in the product description of all garments where this applies. Navigate to the Size Chart in the footer menu.
