Comme des Garçons for H&M, Madrid. (II)

I promised and here they are, photos of what I bought at H&M on the launch day of the Comme des Garçons collection.

Here are some pictures of what I bought from Comme des Garçons for H&M. Hope you like it!


The jacket was one of my clear objectives, but the pants weren't. I thought they were horrible, I grabbed them just in case and when I tried them on, I loved them. They are super comfortable, with spacious pockets and a pretty good fabric.

I'm enchanted by the jacket. I can't tell you how comfortable those cuts are for avoiding oppressive pressure in the armpits and also keeping them fresh and airy. And the wool is good. People tell me the quality wasn't good, and I'm amazed, what do we expect? To get something for nothing? They convince Rei Kawakubo, famous for her bad temper, to make a collection for the masses and we still complain because she didn't use wool crepe. Honestly, I can't stand the negative attitude and complaining for the sake of it.

I tried the look at night and that's when everything together makes the most sense. During the day, each piece separately will also look good, but we'll save the total look for the evening.
By the way, in this photo, the person in the foreground is our new correspondent, Xavs, whose first report will be published tomorrow. Don't miss it, it's great. What a find!




This is the penguin tuxedo jacket I dreamed of since I first saw it. I'd been looking for one like it for a long time, and I thank Rei for designing it for me. Just one thing, Rei, you did fail with the texture here. Oh, darn it, the wool isn't good, in fact, it's very fuzzy and I'm afraid it will pill in a few months, but I'm happy with it and with a good lint remover, no sorrow can stand in the way.

I'm taking the opportunity to show these shoes because they are a great acquisition from this summer, thanks to Zara deciding to clone Maison Martin Margiela! I couldn't believe it, but it's true, they stepped outside the usual circuit and here's the result.


This is another combination I made during the day with ballet flats to make the look more wearable. In fact, I think it looks better with flat shoes, not because of the jacket, but because of the wrinkled look of the pants.


By the way, I recommend wearing outlandish hairstyles with CdG acquisitions, I promise you the clothes look better. I mean a high bun and things like that, not wearing a dyed blonde mop like in the ad.
