Commes des Garcons for H&M

by Tracy Chait (RSS feed) Aug 20th 2008 at 11:02AM

Following early speculation about what exactly Commes des Garcons would come up with for its collaboration with H&M, a couple of photos have surfaced of the new line, which will hit stores for, oh, about 30 seconds in early November. The collection draws on designer Rei Kawakubo's trademark deconstructed jackets and cropped pants, mostly in black with the occasional polka dot. You can see for yourself in the September issue of W (on newsstands today).

I am so excited by this, I can't wait to see them and am hoping there is a men's line! Maybe I'll even by a ladies piece. Too cool.

There is a men's line, too! Check out September's W mag for images. Commes is doing perfume, too--just no kid's stuff from what I've heard.

This looks like something a bag lady would wear! *roll eyes*

Sometimes you have to see them in person to fully appreciate them.

Tracy, CdG have been in the fragrance world since the early 90's. They are highly prized and widely acknowledged as some of the finest examples of modern perfumery. I have at least a dozen, if not more, of their fragrances and recommend them to anyone interested in fragrance. An absolute must to check out. Just keep a very open mind.
