Available Now: Comme des Garçons PLAY
Haven Neiman
Best known for its non-conforming styles that appeal to younger generations, Comme des Garçons PLAY first made its debut in 2002 as a sub-label to Comme des Garçons. This sub-label presents itself as a more functional version of the primary elevated line. It takes on an elevated yet casual aesthetic, all while incorporating traditional wardrobe-essentials. These wardrobe essentials are made up of long sleeve tees, crewnecks, hoodies, and more. All of these apparel offerings spotlight simplistic patterns and signature branding such as the iconic bug-eyed red heart motif designed by Filip Pagowski.
Along with Comme des Garçons PLAY’s premium apparel offerings is the brand’s ongoing footwear collaboration with legendary footwear brand Converse. This collaboration first began in 2009 and has grown to become a sneaker staple in the fashion industry. Presented on a variety of low and high top silhouettes, the Converse x Comme des Garçons PLAY offerings are must-haves for wardrobes worldwide. The Converse x Comme des Garçons Play All Star Chuck ‘70 Hi takes on a canvas upper paired with a screen-printed bug-eyed red heart motif graphic that leads into the rubber vulcanized midsole. A rubber toe cap is also placed, while the cotton lace closure offers a durable and secure touch. A contrasting stripe resides vertically along the heel, while a signature Converse All Star patch is placed at the lateral ankle for a finished aesthetic.
Introduced in this new apparel delivery from Comme des Garçons PLAY is the Women’s Striped White Sleeve L/S T-Shirt. Perfect for the cooler months, this silhouette is crafted entirely from cotton and sports a subtle crew neckline for added detail. An all-over striped pattern is placed, while the bottom portion of the sleeves contrasts themselves from one another. An embroidered bug-eyed red heart motif is stitched at the chest for a finishing touch.
Great for layering or wearing on its own, the Comme des Garçons PLAY Camouflage Mirror Heart T-Shirt makes an impression on any apparel rotation. The cotton-cut tee also includes a crew neckline, while the design itself spotlights mirrored screen-printed bug-eyed heart graphics in addition to an embroidered heart directly next to it. The Comme des Garçons PLAY Big Black Heart Hooded Sweatshirt is another must-have apparel silhouette from the contemporary label. Cut from polyester, the design spotlights a full-zip closure in addition to an adjustable drawstring hood. At the chest is a small embroidered black bug-eyed heart motif. Additionally, the ribbed detailing at the cuffs and hem make a further impression on the overall look. At the rear of the silhouette is an enlarged bug-eyed heart graphic, which spotlights the remainder of the everyday yet contemporary design.
