Words

While I might admittedly prefer collars more prevalent in the 1940s and 1970s, you can't ignore the '80s forever. This shirt from Comme des Garçons Homme Plus looks like it was ripped straight out of the 1989 film Slaves of New York, with its classic silhouette and larger than life flourishes. It also doesn't hurt that the price seems to be from a bygone era as well.

Words

This sweater from Ganryu is a true work of art. The design cues seem to come from some mix of Angkor Wat's walls and a Rudolf Stingel painting, producing the rare garment that can really speak for itself.
