“tricot COMME des GARÇONS”
80s-90s Shawl-Collar Wool Waistcoat
From tricot COMME des GARÇONS, which has been presenting new value in everyday wear through distinctive pattern making and material selection, we introduce a piece distinguished by its meticulous reconstruction.
Grounded in a classic tailored vest, this item is finished with a quiet sense of tension, created by a shawl collar that falls deeply and a hem cut with sharp, angular precision.
The outer fabric is made entirely of 100% wool, and the deep black with rich depth tightens the overall outline. The shawl collar flows smoothly from the neckline to the torso, producing a natural vertical line. Although it features a compact design, when worn it delivers a clean, sharply defined presence.
On the front, three buttons and welt pockets on both sides are arranged to form a refined structure with restrained decoration. While the hem, tailored in a double-pointed manner, heightens the tension characteristic of tailored wear, the back is equipped with a belt that allows the waist to be adjusted, enabling changes in silhouette according to the wearer’s build and layering.
The interior is fully lined with 100% cupro. The smooth lining, finished with a subtle sheen, enhances ease of wearing and removal, while also supporting the vest’s beautiful form from within.
In addition, AD1989 noted on the quality indication tag is a control notation indicating the manufacturing period, serving as evidence that this item is a piece produced in 1989. As an archive with a clearly defined background in the late 1980s, it also carries significant value in that it allows one to feel the formative design philosophy of tricot COMME des GARÇONS as reflected in its early expression—an aspect you can appreciate directly.
Precisely because the design is a single, understated black color, the curves of the deeply drawn shawl collar, the sharp, angular hem, and the three-dimensional shaping created by the back belt stand out clearly. Rather than simply adhering to classic dress codes, this compressed expression of tricot COMME des GARÇONS’s sensibility reinterprets the structure itself, stripping it down and translating it into a mode that fits naturally into everyday life.
Layer it over a shirt or blouse to enjoy a look that highlights the vest’s refined tailoring. Pair it with a T-shirt and wide trousers, and you can incorporate its distinctive collar and hem shapes into daily wear without any sense of overemphasis. It is also recommended to layer it over a one-piece dress or a long skirt to enjoy a beautiful contrast with the straight-lined silhouette of the vest.
This is especially recommended for those who wish to incorporate an archive piece with provenance into their everyday wardrobe, and for those seeking clothing that possesses true individuality and sculptural beauty within a restrained presence.
We look forward to offering you this opportunity.
