Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between Details
Review "[A] substantial survey. . . . Kawakubo calls her clothes 'objects for the body,' and this catalog allows those objects to speak to readers who understand that fashion goes beyond what you’re wearing to work tomorrow."—Library Journal"The catalog is a collector’s piece . . . the 240-page book is minimal, arresting, and impossibly chic."—Elle"The beautifully produced catalogue offers much that is not in the exhibition . . . Kawakubo’s musings at the Met are high expressions of her life on this planet and also collaborations with her design team"—Jan Garden Castro, Woman's Art Journal Read more Book Description Gorgeously illustrated, this book explores the creative output and artistic preoccupations of one of the most important and wildly inventive fashion designers of the last four decades.

The beginning interview was incredible and it just got better. Photographs are gorgeous and the analysis is genius. Would recommend to anyone.
