AW98 "Fusion" Deconstructed Dress
Comme des Garçons Autumn/Winter 1998 "Fusion" Deconstructed Dress in Taupe
The Deconstructed Dress is a maxi-length silhouette that juxtaposes structure and fluidity through a layered, multi-component construction. It features an inner bodice that secures with a hook-and-eye closure, overlaid by an asymmetrical outer shell with a concealed button placket. The staggered fastenings imitate overlapping corsetry, presenting a design that is both protective and exposed. Tailored with several curved darts and asymmetric draping, the dress carves around the body like a sculpture in cloth. The hem can be folded and fastened via a discreet button tap to alter the shape entirely.
