Comme des Garcons’ founder and head designer Rei Kawakubo is the next in line (following Viktor and Rolf, Karl Lagerfeld, and Stella McCartney) to design a collection for Swedish giant H&M. The collection, which will involve a mens, womens, and children’s line as well as accessories and fragrances will be available this Autumn.
Kawakubo says of the collaboration “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.”
