If you’re going to visit any Comme des Garçons shop while you’re in Tokyo, it has to be the flagship store in Aoyama. Opened back in 1999, the boutique was designed in collaboration with architect Takao Kawasaki, who helped turn this former office space into a sleek structure that’s able to highlight the building and showcase the store’s clothing and merchandise in the best possible light.
The brand’s designer and founder Rei Kawakubo also had significant input on the shop’s interior, which is mainly stark white (as are most Comme des Garçons boutiques), and a perfect backdrop for her dramatic designs.
