Words

Designed to represent the purest expression of the essence and values of Comme des Garçons, the New York store in Chelsea was recently renovated and re-opened with a golden touch. Inspired by the fact that babies are often drawn to the colour gold, Rei Kawakubo wanted to express her vision with the bold, luxurious shade – her third colour for the brand after black and red. Besides the new tones and latest collections, the space also features installation sculptures by Kohei Nawa and custom gold light shades by .PSLAB of Beruit.
