COMME des GARCONS
1970s?1980s Early Archive
Flower Shadow Design Long Dress/Coat Piece

This is not "clothing."
It is Comme des Garçons itself, before the idea was even commercialized.

Clearly different from the current, completed brand image,
Late 1970s?early 80s──
The era when Rei Kawakubo was creating clothes that "overturned the values of the world" instead of "clothes that sell." A surviving specimen.

The tag, sewing specifications, material notation, and, above all, the pattern expression composed only of this flower shadow.
Completely eliminating sweetness, the sensibility of treating flowers not as "beauty" but as unease, memory, and afterimage,
can only be established in this era's Garçons.

The color scheme is based on a deep, subdued navy,
with the flower shadows appearing only at certain angles of light.
It doesn't assert itself, yet it captivates the eye.
This is not a print, but the presence itself is the design.

The silhouette appears classic at first glance.
However, you'll immediately understand when you wear it,

Everything is designed on the premise of "unfinished," an anti-clothing structure.

The material is 100% wool.
Unlike today's lightweight wool,
the fabric has a unique weight, density, and fuzziness of the time,
and the texture created over time is even part of the design.

To be honest,
Garçons from this era──

・Don't even appear on the market
・Don't remain in good condition
・Have been discarded without being understood
・Impossible to reproduce or reinterpret

For these reasons, the number of existing pieces is extremely small.

In the future, early pieces of this class
will almost never be distributed "as products."
