and it begins

the much awaited h&m + rei kawakubo/comme des garçons collaboration will be available next thursday 11/13/08 at various h&m locations around the country. get there early - the entire collection is expected to sell out by the weekend, as was the case with previous h&m collaborations.

to be honest, i was never much of a fan of comme des garçons until i saw the spring 2009 collection. note the victorian vampire-cookie monster coat pictured above. i was inspired by designer rei kawakubo's minimal monchromatic weirdness, use of hexagonal panelling, total and complete ignorance of contemporary trends in fashion. this, my friends, is how everyone should dress.

look for me to cop a pair of dropped-crotch pants.
