Comme des Garçons PLAY
The Iconic Red Heart
First established in 1973 by self-taught designer Rei Kawakubo, Comme des Garçons is a Japanese fashion label that translates to ‘like boys’ in French. Rei Kawakubo has always been passionate about design, and her minimalist aesthetic was immediately different from the other designers. Comme des Garçons’ overall fashion movement questions traditional female clothing and has since seeped over and grown into additional offerings for men and kids. By challenging the status quo through different, comfortable, and functional styles that make a formal statement. Since its early beginnings, Comme des Garçons has since branched out into various sub-lines, such as Comme des Garçons Noir, Comme des Garçons Homme Plus, Comme des Garçons SHIRT, and most notably, Comme des Garçons PLAY.
Featured in the latest men’s apparel delivery from Comme des Garçons PLAY is the Camouflage Mirror Heart T-Shirt.
