What to know about Comme des Garçons Black

Born from the 2009 crash

Launched during the financial crisis as the cheapest way into Rei Kawakubo's house, keeping the design language while cutting the price.

Almost everything is black

The line runs on predominantly black pieces — boxy tees, cropped blazers, hoodies, pleated skirts, layered knits — with off-kilter cuts doing the work instead of colour.

Graphics and Nike capsules recur

Prints come from long-time Kawakubo collaborator Filip Pagowski, and seasonal Nike capsules land alongside the main range.
