Comme des Garçons To Design For H&M Autumn '08 Collection

Rei Kawakubo, founder and head designer of Japanese label Comme des Garçons will be featured as a guest designer for Swedish label H&M's 2008 Autumn collection. She will be contributing her creativity and artistry to build an incredibly strong line up of H&M's women and men collection, a small range for children as well, countable accessories and an exclusive unisex fragrance.

"I have always been interested in the balance between creation and business. It is a dilemma, although for me creation has always been the first priority. It is a fascinating challenge to work with H&M since it is a chance to take the dilemma to its extreme, and try to solve it", says Kawakubo, quoted from a press release. To read on, click here.

Some early November will see the release of this strong collection at the opening of H&M's second outlet in Tokyo. The rest of the stores will get the stocks a few days later.

The good thing is, you get to purchase a product designed by CdG tagged under H&M at an affordable pricing, which is simply ten times cheaper than a CdG piece labeled CdG. The greatest bargain ever! The bad thing is, it will ruin the whole exclusivity and class of the CdG name. I don't know, you tell me. Let's talk.
