Rei Kawakubo of Comme des Garçons on her design process

0

Not architecture but still.....

In the NYT Cath Hory recently wrote about the news that the Council of Fashion Designers of America will honor Rei Kawakubo with a lifetime achievement award this year. In the essay she related that she had recently asked Ms. Kawakubo to provide one or two specifics about her design methods. Rei Kawakubo had replied, by e-mail:

My design process never starts or finishes. I am always hoping to find something through the mere act of living my daily life. I do not work from a desk, and do not have an exact starting point for any collection."

 

There is more about the specifics of cloth and pattern, fashion/aesthetics if you are interested, in the piece.
