About this selection

{"type":"root","children":[{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"Rei Kawakubo stands as one of the rare creators in fashion history whose influence transcends mere clothing, reaching into the realms of thought and philosophy. Since founding Comme des Garçons in Tokyo in 1969, the Japanese designer has relentlessly questioned the very foundations of what fashion is meant to be and signify. Her 1981 Parisian debut, showcasing a collection of black, asymmetrical, and deliberately unfinished garments, ignited an aesthetic shockwave that continues to reverberate through the industry over four decades later. The Parisian press at the time infamously dubbed it \"Hiroshima chic,\" failing to grasp that they were witnessing the birth of a novel sartorial language whose codes they would ultimately embrace.\n\nThe Kawakubo universe, as curated by Actuel B, brings together multiple expressions of this singular vision. The main Comme des Garçons line each season pushes the boundaries of deconstruction and volume into territories no other designer would dare to explore. Comme des Garçons Comme des Garçons distills the house's essence into more wearable propositions, yet always imbued with the same creative intelligence, the obsessive polka dots, and precise cuts that have become instantly recognizable signatures. BLACK delves into the darkest and most radical territories of Kawakubo's aesthetic, featuring pieces in crinkled polyester and unconventional volumes that render clothing an act of resistance as much as an object of beauty. Asymmetrical cuts, unexpected materials, and constructions that seemingly defy the laws of gravity and conventional good sense are all manifestations of total creative freedom—that of a woman who has never sought to please, but always to provoke.\n\nAt Actuel B, we offer a selection from the Comme des Garçons women's collections, available in our boutiques in Avignon and Arles, as well as on our website. Pieces from the main line, CDG CDG essentials, and BLACK creations are presented by teams trained in the demanding and fascinating universe of the house, with the personalized advice that characterizes our approach to multi-brand luxury."}]}]}
