First edition. Softcover 12 x 12". 204pp. White cotton paper wrappers. B&w and colour plates throughout. English and Japanese texts. Tokyo: Comme des Garçons, 1982.
A scarce, incredibly beautiful Comme des Garçons lookbook documenting the early years of Rei Kawakubo's brand from the first campaign in 1975 up until 1982. Printed largely in black and white on textured paper, this is a crisp, atmospheric production. With photography by Daiho Yoshida, Bruce Weber, Deborah Turbeville, Sarah Moon and early Peter Lindbergh. On publication the book was only available privately for staff and clients, making it highly sought after. An essential fashion and styling reference.
