It's #Art: If you've seen a Comme de Garcons runway show, you know exaggerated, structured silhouettes are the name of the game. Rei was ahead of the distressed trend decades before T-shirts with holes and pants with rips were a thing. It's not exactly wearable clothing, as in you won't find a sun dress with a pretty bow on it. You will find pieces with that pretty bow deconstructed in every way possible, though. 

And Trendy, Too: OK, you're not going to be wearing the runway collection at work. You will, however, see plenty of her Play collection in a luxury department store near you. This more affordable collection—ranging from $100 T-shirts to $400 cardigans and sneakers—features a heart-shaped caricature that's become a brand signature and, frankly, a status symbol. In fact, in Tokyo, there is a limited amount of Play pieces stocked every week, as to not over-saturate the market because demand is so high.
