Comme des Garcons Product Bonanza








It does seem to me that Comme des Garcons is all over the map these days, doing collaborations with whoever comes their way, no? There was some very not-CDG-looking swimwear with Speedo, then those tidy-whiteys with Danish clothier Hammerthor and some interesting "organic" turds & penises print wallets with KAWS.
Now Comme des Garcons and 10 Corso Como got together with Levi's to produce the Black Cosmo Jeans. It comes in black denim and features a Comme des Garcons/10 Corso Como print over the upper part of the denim.
The denim is part of the Junya Watanabe MAN collection and is now available at Human Behaviour. Then there is the matching denim tote bag, featuring the same all-over print as the denim. It is now available at Conceptshop for US$64.00.
The Kiefer-Hi Patala "Marketing Machine" sneaker features a zipper instead of laces, comes in three colorways and features the "Marketing Machine" all-over print. They will be available soon at Dover Street Market and Dover Street Market inside Isetan.

Junya Watanabe Fall Winter 2008 Preview













This season the words were "geometric sculpture"—but as gnomic as that sounds, the amazing collection of draped gray jersey Junya Watanabe assembled actually needs no further explanation. There's a level at which intellectual justifications for clothing become tedious, and there was nothing difficult to understand about the beautiful complexities of the charcoal- and marled-gray knits Watanabe wound and rewound about the body in a zillion inventive ways.
This is probably my favorite collection so far! Simply fab!
