Designer Connections











Commes des Garcons' founder and head designer, Rei Kawakubo is the latest hot fashion name to join forces with high street favourite H&M.

Admired within the fashion world for both her creativity and artistry, Rei will design a women's and a men's collection, along with a few pieces for children, with an exclusive unisex fragrance also set to be included in the collection.

Margareta van der Bosch, creative advisor at H&M, says of the collaboration:

"Rei Kawakubo has been at the top of our wish list for a long time and we are thrilled that she has chosen to collaborate with us. We have tremendous respect for Kawabuko's fashion philosophy of questioning fashion's ingrained patterns, and admire her artistic approach to design."

Rei herself adds:

"I have always been interested in the balance between creation and business. It is a dilemma, although for me creation has always been the first priority. It is a fascinating challenge to work with H&M since it is a chance to take the dilemma to its extreme, and try to solve it."

You can see for yourself how Rei steps up to the challenge when the range hits stores in November.
