This striking Comme des Garçons smocked bib dress from 1989 showcases Rei Kawakubo's signature avant-garde approach to fashion. The dress features an intricately gathered smocking technique throughout, creating a textural, voluminous silhouette that hugs and releases the body in dynamic ways. The structured bib design adds a unique architectural element, further enhancing the piece’s sculptural quality. Made in sleek black fabric, the straps of the dress extend over the shoulders for a modern apron-like effect. The juxtaposition of the fitted yet fluid form gives this piece a timeless, experimental edge, perfect for those who appreciate deconstructed, boundary-pushing fashion.
