Founded in 1981 by Rei Kawakubo,tricot COMME des GARÇONS is a line dedicated to practicality and lightness, pursuing designs that naturally integrate into everyday life. This piece comes from the 1999 Autumn/Winter collection, an archive item distinguished by the brand’s signature structural form and quiet individuality.
Defined by a square-based asymmetric silhouette, the coat creates a sculptural balance that gently envelops the body. Its design lends itself well to layering, offering a striking presence when simply thrown on. The soft texture of rayon and cupra is complemented by the character of wool, resulting in a fabric that combines fluid drape with warmth.
This piece exemplifies tricot’s distinctive approach, skillfully blending avant-garde sensibility with everyday functionality.
