COMME des GARÇONS' Unknowing Source of Inspiration

Just because the designer deny a source of inspiration, does it mean that it is impossible to have influenced the designer's work? Today we dive into Rei Kawakubo of Comme Des Garcons, use her interview with Hans Ulrich Obrist and Ory Bartal's article "Rei Kawakubo and The Luxury of Freedom" as a case study, to spark the conversation around the topic of 'is it okay to be wrong about fashion?' or the better question would be 'is your analysis made wrong when the designer denies it?' I hope you enjoy this deep dive! Make sure to watch the fashion iceberg I made!
