Take a close-up look at two Comme des Garçons objects on view now in #MetKimono. Rei Kawakubo is known for radical silhouettes that question conventional notions of beauty.⁣ ⁣ 🟡 The fall 2012 “2 Dimensions” collection blurred the boundaries between body and garment. As seen in this dress, the collection incorporated the two-dimensionality of the kimono into a trompe l’oeil silhouette of a Western dress. Its bold, primary colors and flat, outsize shape challenge the rules of age-appropriate dressing by engaging with the concept of kawaii (cuteness), a key aspect of Japanese popular culture defined by playfulness and performativity.⁣ ⁣ 💐 According to Kawakubo, this armature, made up of a patchwork of floral jacquard fabrics pieced together with rivets, conjures up “punks in the 18th century, which was a time of so many revolutions.” Combining tradition with transgression, the designer creates a rebellious, yet romantic silhouette. // Ensemble, #CommedesGarçons (Japanese, founded 1969), #ReiKawakubo (Japanese, born 1942), fall/winter 2016–17; Purchase, Friends of The Costume Institute Gifts, 2016 (2016.616a–aaa).

I bet you didnt know this about Rei Kawakubo 🫵 Quoting Rex Butler’s book [Rei Kawakubo: For and Against Fashion], “For instance, Kawakubo’s clothes are deliberately designed to look worn and dishevelled, defying common sense and challenging notions of perfection. At first her work was regarded with revulsion, but this eventually gave way to amazement and admiration.14 Kawakubo challenges perfect symmetry and makes an attempt to destroy it.” And then she said that about the machine. #reikawakubo #cdg #commesdesgarcons #avantgardefashion #japanesefashion
