For RTW Fall 2013, COMME des GARÇONS Hommes Plus Fancied Pastels & Plenty Of Texture

Sending most of the models down the runway wearing leather baseball caps with long bunny ears, thanks to Stephen Jones, the COMME des GARÇONS Hommes Plus RTW Fall 2013 collection befittingly took to easter eggs as it’s dominant color palette with an occasional break of black + white.  With pinks, mints, butter yellows and baby blues, Rei Kawakubo manages to dispel all belief that Autumn + WInter temperatures are very cold, (for the most part) by creating looks that are not so much embedded in cotton candy, but looks and feels like it to. Take this look for instance where you have a pink brocade jacket  which is piped in small pink fringe all along the bottom, ending maybe three inches from the second button.  The untucked butter yellow shirt degrades the dressy feel of the jacket while complimenting these mint quasi-jodhpur cropped pants.  Loving the pink shoes.

For the most part, most of the pants throughout the collection were cropped if not, shorter by most standards.  Some looks looked as comfortable as a terry robe, like the peach + lavender above.  When I first saw the peach look, all I envisioned was running my fingers through those little balls.

This looks like a top contender as a modern take of the casual walking suit, doesn’t it?
