10 Comme des Garcons Spring 2012
Rei Kawakubo always marches to the beat of her own tune and her Spring collection for Comme des Garcons showed us yet another striking statement from the designer. The collection, which Kawakubo described as "white drama", displayed gowns with references to marriage and death. Dramatic, as she sent one of the models down the runway in a duchesse satin wedding dress bound at the wrists — we can Read more

Paris Fashion Week is no stranger to the avant-garde. In the fashion capital, the crazier, the better. But some designers take the concept of fashion-forward to a whole new level. Comme des Garçons, Maison Martin Margiela, Manish Arora (who often provides costumes for Katy Perry), and Viktor & Rolf are some of the orchestrators who liven up the Parisian catwalks. Face paint, fuzzy helmets, Read more
Warning: It's going to get crazy. The Comme des Garçons for H&M collection arrives in US stores tomorrow — set your alarm! The madness started last Saturday in Japan as H&M unveiled the collection to eager fans. According to sources, people stood in line for days to ensure their place in line. Rei Kawakubo's avant garde offerings include boiled wool pea coats, harem pants, and polka Read more
You're probably already overwhelmed by your TiVo list, but what's one more show? When you have a few minutes, be sure to catch H&M's new Fashion TV. Currently there are two videos (it's a twice-monthly program). The first one is about the Comme des Garçons collaboration and it features model Missy Rayder (left) and The Sartorialist Scott Schuman. The second is a fun and useful knitwear style Read more
Years past have brought Karl Lagerfeld, Stella McCartney, Viktor & Rolf, and Roberto Cavalli to H&M, but 2008 is the year of Comme des Garçons. Although no specific details have been released, head Comme designer Rei Kawakubo is expected to produce men's, women's, and children's collections for the fast-fashion chain, as well as a unisex fragrance. The collection, which will likely Read more
Who says models are all beauty and no brains? Okay, I can't vouch for their brains, but I can prove that they have some mad skills. Wearing what looks like a suffocating bag around your face and having to walk down a long runway takes precision. Many models trip, even without such an obstacle, so I give the models who walked the Junya Watanabe Fall '08 show in Paris some respect. It looks like Read more
Things got controversial when I talked about a pair of clogs recently, so I wanted to see what you all thought about these Comme des Garcons Slingback Clogs ($490). They're a little too chunky and sparse for my taste — what about you? Take all of my Love It or Hate It Polls here! To post your selections go to the Love It or Hate It? group. And if you want to learn how to do a blog post click Read more
With a dose of the same offbeat charm that made us fans of her alter ego's style, Sarah Jessica Parker outfitted a quirky twist on a Comme des Garcons midi skirt with a pop of hot pink on her go-to cardigan. We've seen this styling trick from SJP before, but that doesn't mean we're any less impressed. We love that she livened up a tartan print, a black tank, and gray ankle boots with a little Read more
