Comme des Garçons New York

One might easily mistake the architectural grandeur of Comme des Garçons New York for an art gallery. In 1969, when Rei Kawakubo started the line in Tokyo, it became an instant success. He brought his genius to the fashion capitals of the world, London, Paris and New York where black is synonymous with chic and trendy. The clothes are known for their flared and distressed silhouettes.Though pricey, they are far removed from the usual fashions of New York.
