COMME des GARÇONS 1992aw Runway Asymmetric Pleated Sheer Skirt
A runway piece from COMME des GARÇONS' Autumn/Winter 1992 collection, a season defined by Rei Kawakubo's exploration of concealment, distortion, and the relationship between clothing and the body. Dominated by black, with occasional flashes of pale pink and white, the collection rejected conventional ideas of flattering the figure in favour of sculptural, enveloping silhouettes. Irregular pleating, sheer fabrics, and deliberately unfinished details introduced an unsettling beauty to the garments. This black skirt features a straight, elongated silhouette, interrupted by irregularly arranged pleats that shift direction across the body. Crafted from 100% polyester, the lightweight fabric has a delicate translucency, with a single layer offering approximately 40% transparency. The interplay of sheer surfaces, overlapping layers, and directional pleating creates subtle variations in depth and opacity. Equally suited to layering over tights, trousers, or another skirt, as styled on the runway. A versatile yet distinctly experimental piece that captures the collection's tension between exposure and concealment. The pleats are permanently set into the polyester fabric and retain their structure without ironing.
