Comme Des Garçons SS1997 Layered Knit Sweater

$450.00

Rei Kawakubo is the genius behind the Comme Des Garçons universe. She redefines what is means to be human by not placing restrictions on the dress of men and women alike. Although she a womenswear designer, a fascination of hers is the structure by which mens fashion is supported in the industry. Her mens line, Homme Plus, began in 1978 as a way to expand the horizons of the Comme Des Garçons brand. A basic Homme Plus tailored suit is commonly distorted and manipulated into different shapes and fits that create a mystery behind the individual who wears it.


This garment is composed of two different layers. The base layer is a printed poly longsleeve t-shirt, whereas the overlay is a grey cotton loose-guage knit fabric. Throughout the 1990s, Rei had been sampling extensively with knits in her Homme Plus line. This piece is a testament to that creative process.


Size Unmarked. Fits a size M (please refer to measurements):

Shoulder: 20in

Chest: 21in

Length: 25in

Sleeve: 25in


Condition: 7/10. Distressing in the mesh fabric on the sleeves.
