HISTORY
Produced circa 1989 under the direction of Rei Kawakubo, this dress shirt reflects COMME des GARÇONS’ early approach to deconstructing established garments. During this period, the brand challenged conventional tailoring by introducing subtle but conceptually radical alterations to familiar forms. The double-collar construction exemplifies Kawakubo’s method of questioning formal norms through minimal intervention, positioning the piece as a key example of late-1980s COMME des GARÇONS shirting.
