So here's the thing: It's perfectly okay if you don't get it or don't understand it or don't even like it. Just look at it, and let it lounge in the back of your mind. It's so rare to see things, especially in fashion, that are inconceivable. And Rei Kawakubo at Comme des Garcons is the master at serving up just that.
If you just let it sit in your imagination for a bit, you may find yourself a month or two down the line staring at a multi-leveled jacket, gauzy leggings, or, you know, a rug, and register the influence of why these items are new and fresh and appealing! Ah, Comme des Garcons. To like/understand/appreciate the line is like receiving a virtual high five from the master scribe herself, Ms. Cathy Horyn.
