Snag a Peek: Comme Des Garcons’ HM Line
W magazine has released a widely awaited sneak peek of Comme Des Garcons line for H&M. The sneak peek led us on to a few hints. We hear a lot black with “Japanese tomboy airs.” I guess as we dread the end of our fun in the sun, November, the release date, may have so strong points after all. W magazine says of the line:
“[A] range of tailored jackets, many deconstructed, along with cropped pants, baggy shorts and a variety of skirts in stretch wool. On the perkier side are polkadot knits in jersey or merino wool, colorful shirts—some with dots—and a “showpiece” coatdress decorated here and there with dense Victorian ruffles.”
Sounds like there’s something for everyone!
Collab-Ho: Comme Des Garcons & Osomatsu Kun
Get ready for a new collaboration! Comme Des Garcons has matched up with Osomatsu Kun, manga artist, for the creation of his new fall/winter 08 collection. The designs feature Osomatu’s art on a variety of clothing pieces, including shoes, shirts, and blazers. The graphics covering the shoes in both gray and white are all credited to Osomatsu. Don’t plan on walking down the streets to a humble beat in these shoes, once you put them on you’re sure to make a bold splash.

Street Heroes: Sartorialist Captures Men in Skirts
Not sure if our society is ready for men is skirts? But these guys, may I say, don’t look so bad. Whether the men’s liberation movement has come, or the ways of the runway have brainwashed the fashion savvy, but it might not be too long before we see more of these.

Comme Des Garcons Fall/Winter 08/09
Comme Des Garcons has released a preview of the Fall/Winter 08/09 shirt collection. Patchwork is the main characteristic correlated throughout the collection. The line encompasses a wide range of different designs through intricate creative detail. The color palette in the Comme Des Garcons collection is not specific to one area; there are a wide range of colors used to add to the unique creations. Though the shirts range in design they all correlate to fit the puzzle.The patchwork makes a statement; it can’t be denied.

Sneak Peak: Comme Des Garcons and Louis Vuitton Collaboration
Awhile back we reported on the Comme Des Garcons and Louis Vuitton Collaboration, well finally images of these exclusive bags have surfaced. I am a huge fan of the tags that hang off the smaller tube shaped bag. However I think that the rest of the line is a disappointment at best. I am very confused on the six handled purse. If I were Marc Jacobs I would be ashamed to have my name associated with this line. It really does seem like this was a rushed line and definately a let down for all the hype it recieved.
Gracias Nitrolicious for the glorious pictures!
Hussein Chalayan to Design Shoes
Hussein Chalayan has announced that his first shoe collection will be ready for autumn/winter 2009-10. Wonder what the master of gadgets and incorporating tech into garments, will have in store for footwear. Hopefully, it will be something just as cool as these sock boots (above) that he did for his fall/winter 08 collection.
Also, Hussein just announced his upcoming partnership with Comme des Garcons, and another collaboration on the table with Louis Vuitton. Keep you posted on all that good stuff.
