Fashion retailer H&M will collaborate with Comme des Garçons founder and head designer Rei Kawakubo to create its autumn guest designer collection

Kawakubo will design women’s and men’s collections with some children’s pieces. The range will also include fragrance and accessories.

The world launch will be at the opening of H&M’s second store in Tokyo at the beginning of November and will launch in other markets a few days later.

The collaboration follows link-ups with other designers and celebrities including Viktor & Rolf, Madonna and Stella McCartney.
