Comme des Garcons founder and avant-garde legend Rei Kawakubo rarely grants interviews. And when she does, she tends to describe her approach as follows: “It’s always the same with each and every collection … it’s about designing something new; something that hasn’t been done before.” For more than four decades, Kawakubo has managed to find ever-new facets in the Comme de Garçons brand, supported by disciples like Junya Watanabe, Fumito Ganryu or Tao Kurihara. The leather goods line Comme des Garçons Wallets is well-known for its pared down wallets and premium leather goods in bold colour palette. Recently, bags and iPad cases joined the mix.
