A limited-time shop for "noir kei ninomiya," a new brand launched by Comme des Garçons in the 2013 Spring/Summer season, opened on the 3rd floor of the Isetan Shinjuku department store on the 10th. It will be open until the 16th.
The sales floor, decorated in all black in keeping with the brand's name, will stock the 2013-2014 Autumn/Winter collection ahead of the Comme des Garçons directly managed stores. The entire first delivery will be on sale, including jackets with cutwork faux leather and knitted botanical embroidery, houndstooth-knit blousons and dresses, houndstooth-printed T-shirts, and a series featuring metal rings and organic knit motifs.
The adjacent Comme des Garçons launches its 2013-2014 Autumn/Winter season on the 14th, and customers are expected to shop in droves.
