Comme des Garçons BLACK is a sub-brand under the prestigious fashion label Comme des Garçons, founded by renowned designer Rei Kawakubo. BLACK was launched in response to the 2008 global economic downturn, as an attempt to strike back against the melancholy of the period. The label embraces the color black in its designs, symbolizing strength, power, and resilience, with pieces that retain the main brand's avant-garde aesthetic. The designs are intentionally timeless, effectively eschewing the ebb and flow of seasonal trends. Comme des Garçons BLACK continues to provide high-quality, edgy, and emotionally impactful designs, reaffirming the brand's reputation as a fashion innovator.
