Comme des Garcons partners with Louis Vuitton

"In an extraordinary collaboration, Louis Vuitton, the ultimate French luxury brand, and Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garcons, the ultimate fashion rebel, will open a joint Tokyo store in September – an ephemeral three-month space where six one-off bags, designed by Kawakubo in the LV monogram pattern, can be ordered by shoppers. Yves Carcelle, chairman and chief executive of Louis Vuitton, sitting front row at Kawakubo's show on Friday, said that he was approached by Comme and considers the project a fine way to celebrate 30 years since Vuitton first opened in Tokyo. Backstage, Kawakubo said that memory of her excitement at the arrival of Parisian luxury in Japan in 1978, resulted in this unlikely idea of the new design duo creating the store within the Comme des Garcons shop off Omotosando. For Comme acolytes, this move will be considered either as sleeping with the enemy – or a brilliant and imaginative partnership. Kawakubo has re-designed the entire Comme des Garcons store on Kottodori, Omotesando for the Vuitton project. Carcelle says that LV is investing in the store, and that any financial profits will be divided.

Marc Jacobs, artistic director of Louis Vuitton, admired Comme des Garcons and was an enthusiastic supporter of the idea of a joint venture. "It is impossible to overstate Rei Kawakubo's influence on modern fashion," Jacobs said in a prepared statement. "I find it wonderful to think that 30 years ago, this immense talent, someone who has inspired so many others, was inspired by Louis Vuitton."

i want to punch cole mohr in the face.

[polishmike]

lib, i think you would be able to rock most of this stuff better than the models. although only maybe half of it is worth it.

[Liberation1945]

^ haha i love you too man...funny cause when i think of cdg homme i think 2000db could rock the shit out of it and he IS my white doppelganger...

[Halifamous]

Jesus. Rei Kawakubo is pretty good at making all of fashion suck her dick from time to time. Shooz pants and tops. mmmm.

[bencap]

[alexryb]

Does anyone know this model's name?

I think he was in a Burberry collection or season or two ago..

[Jotsko]

So everyone's posting this pic...

Okay, the entire idea is beautiful. I've tried to pull this off many a times. I'm not a fan of the top, though. Waist down, it's beautiful. By far one of my favorites this season.
