No prizes for guessing the colour palate that presides over
Black Comme des Garçons – it’s all in the name. Rei Kawakubo founded the label in ’09 as a reaction to the negativity surrounding the recession. A decade later, this dress is the latest to get the tonal treatment. Cut with a raw frilled trim at the waist, it’s sliced with an asymmetric hem and sharp pleating all over. The high-waist style is made for tucking a tee beneath; make it plain white, for that monochrome contrast.
