The intention of this post was to write about La Garconne Dress! When thinking of this style of dress, I imagine a perfect dress to wear for a grand ball or an event! Not only is the dress bold but it hugs a woman’s curves in all the right places. Unlike a typical bodycon dress, these dresses are audacious and elegant!
If you are in the market for a daring and eye-catching dress… my following choices for statement gowns may be quite useful for your next party!
In addition, let’s dive into the brief fashion history of Commes Des Garcons! Which is the inspiration for this
COMMES DES GARCONE
Commes Des Garcons created by Japanese fashion designer Rei Kawakubo in 1969. The company is known for its avant-garde creations. That embraces a grunge-chic style while mixing elements of androgyny and contemporary art. In addition to its unique designs … CDG often uses unconventional materials in its collections. Think knit sweaters with horsehair lining and wool skirts made out of paper.
Rei Kawakubo known for her vision of destructing the fashion’s feminine silhouette. And bridging the gap between fashion and art. She is revolutionary and legendary, she is the only Asian woman to have had an expedition at the MET in 2017.
