The Beatles say Hello, Hello to Comme des Garcons

[ahlefeldt]

WWD reports in with some very interesting news combining (arguably) the biggest band from England with Japan’s CdG line. What’s interesting about the collaboration is how reluctant Apple Corp, rights holders for The Beatles, have been about licensing out the name for anything other than music related products. “Comme des Garcons and Apple Corps Ltd. – the London-based company that manages the legacy and musical catalog of the British band – are teaming up to launch a new collection of bags under The Beatles/Comme des Garcons label, with the first styles slated to debut mid-November at Dover Street Market, Kawakubo’s multi-brand emporium in London, and Gyre in Tokyo, with additional distribution to follow…”

Please Rei, no!
If you dont want me to lose respect for you tell me this is a Joke!

[drexl]

Sounds like something from The Onion.

File under WTF. I don't know why you are surprised, Zam. She's been going down that road for several years now. I can't wait for Beatles x CDG x Speedo swimming trunks. Hopefully it will have a guitar down the crotch.

Hmmm, even I won't attempt to defend this one. beatlesxcdgxspeedo trunks very funny.

She still makes great clothes though :). If you want to ascertain whether you can respect her have a look at her AW09/10 show on youtube. Beautiful.

Yes I know she has, but there is as line that she is about to cross here that shouldnt be, she went very close with the H&M collab, but now she is about to to leap over the wall of designer tastelessness and ill repute!

[Stack]

Don't forget the LV collab

[Fuuma]

Still has nothing on Yohji's hot pink tiger fire crotch.

[Faust]

/\ Indeed. If we ever have a WTF hall of fame, it will take it's deserved place there.

[Avantster]

Right next to Raf's energetic neon pink gorilla arm tube.

[TarHeart]

It just seems so odd. I guess it would be nice with some kind of explanation, or motivation why she does it.

Do anyone know?

By the way, it would be fun with a WTF hall of fame. Good idea.
