...the beatles bag from comme des garçons 2010...
Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons is usually not one
to follow other people or
jump on running train wagons, but this time - I am afraid - she is a bit behind :0
My collection "
Fashion Rocks", which combines rock 'n' roll imagery and music style with couture fashion has mutated beyond t-shirts and bags long ago and now includes the whole gamut of rock 'n' roll icons, not just The Beatles, FYI. I say this with a smirky smile on my lips!
Then again - come on! - this bag is cute enough and why should Rei not get a shot at
The Beatles? Right? So I am looking forward, impatiently, to see what she'll come up with!
Über fashion reporter and patriarch
Suzy Menkes from the NY Times, whom I got to meet at the
T party at the Boom Boom Room during Fashion Week, forecasts a collection of bags and shirts to look more basic than inventive. Well? Again, that doesn't sound like Rei. I wonder.
Now. Only one last thought before I am moving on with my life: the repetitive logo pattern feels a bit Louis Vuitton-ish, n'est çe pas? I just hope no one bites the dust, dear!!
...grateful dead bag from the idilvicefashionrocks collection 2007...
