02.10.10 Paris

There is no end to Rei Kawakubo's innovation when it comes to deconstructing and reconstructing garments. Today there were sleeves sewn on to sleeves, mis-matched jacket fronts, and even upside down garments. The black textures, particularly leather, combined in a laid back layered style, gave the models a rough edge. Although, the simpler garments like the mini dresses and skirts, with the use of white, softened the collection.


The menswear collection shown in Paris in June had a similar hard edge, but it was in the form of rough tailoring, dark colours and skull prints.
