A brief history of Comme des Garçons SHIRT

Over the years, Comme des Garçons SHIRT has managed to carve out its own path, representing an easy alternative to the unconventional offering of CdG’s mainlines. While focusing on classic wardrobe staples, Comme des Garçons SHIRT incorporates the subversive and punk spirit of its motherlabel into every collection. Rei Kawakubo once said, that if she could have invented one garment, it would have been the white shirt, reflecting on its everlasting and timeless appeal. Today, CdG SHIRT has evolved into one of Comme des Garçon’s most important menswear brands with an expansive offering of different garments beyond just shirts.

 

What is Comme des Garçons SHIRT’s cultural impact?

Comme des Garçons SHIRT has established itself as a gateway to the world of Rei Kawakubo. The simpler nature of its pieces has allowed for a large number of collaborators to use the brand as a canvas to connect their work with the Japanese brand. From popular artists like KAWS and Futura, to major entities like Disney and Star Wars, or historic brands like Asics and Fred Perry, CdG SHIRT is an ever-adapting line of customizable basics. Whether it is a bright print, an unconventionally placed pocket or a patchwork of different materials, the Japanese brand knows how to present complex ideas and concepts in the form of wearable classics. This approach serves as an entry point for many enthusiasts, who admire the vision of the Japanese fashion house, and provides continued excellence for seasoned CdG collectors.
