"COMME des GARÇONS SHIRT" 90s French-made wool shirt coat

From COMME des GARÇONS, which has quietly rewritten fashion norms by translating avant-garde sensibilities cultivated in Paris into everyday wear, we introduce an exceptional wool coat that intersects experimental spirit and practicality of the SHIRT line.

While stripping away ornamentation, the strength is established solely through button placement and surface structure, creating a refined outline that flatters the wearer.

One of its main attractions is the collar designed as an extension of a shirt, avoiding exaggeration typical of coats, resulting in a clean neckline and a broader range of inner wear options.

The front features a straight placket with neatly aligned buttons, and the spacing creates a sense of whitespace, making it visually minimal when closed and emphasizing vertical fall when open, with careful calculation.

Made of 100% wool, the deep black hue maintains a matte expression that absorbs light, and the weight of the fabric creates a natural drape that quietly sways with body movement, which is impressive.

The cuffs are equipped with tabs and buttons, allowing you to subtly tighten the wrists to shape the overall silhouette, and the shirt-like details extended into the coat subtly enhance the SHIRT line's character.

Furthermore, the pockets are practically designed with diagonal openings, and the incorporation of functionality without breaking the minimal look also conveys a sense of strength as a tool.

The silhouette is designed with a generous width, and its pioneering oversized feel makes it less likely to look bulky even when layered over thick tops, blending naturally with modern styling, which is a significant value.

The back features a clean surface with minimal seam interruptions, and the vertical lines directly connect to a sense of strength in presence, allowing you to feel your posture naturally straighten just by wearing it.

The authenticity of the era is also credible, as the domestic agent address listed on the quality label tag, 5-11-5 Minami Aoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo, physically indicates an item from before 2000, and the tag design with white background, COMME des GARÇONS label, and blue SHIRT logo is typical of the mid to late 90s French-made lines, making this piece consistent with that period.

Additionally, the quality labels are divided into multiple sheets with multiple languages, and the presence of the COMME des GARÇONS S.A. label reinforces the background that the SHIRT line was produced entirely in a French factory at that time.

This coat is especially recommended for those seeking clothing that impresses through structure rather than ostentatious display, and it subtly elevates your presence without excess even in daily commuting or work situations, becoming a reliable core in your wardrobe.

Furthermore, the idea of clothing being the simplest and strongest pursuit by 90s Garçon overlaps with contemporary minimalism, making it enjoyable not as something old but as something universal.

Styling-wise, layering over simple shirts or cut-and-sew tops and using slacks or loose-fitting pants to straighten the vertical lines enhances the quiet tension characteristic of Garçon.

When layered over a minimalistic one-piece dress or long skirt, the ambiguity of a shirt coat functions as elegant whitespace, naturally landing in an elegant and mode-less genderless style.

Definitely take this opportunity.
