Dover Street Market was devised by Comme des Garcons founder Rei Kawakubo and is renowned for its innovative store design, installations and for pioneering the idea of a retail shopping environment akin to a gallery space.
Rei Kawakubo: “I wanted to create a kind of market where various creators from various fields gather together and encounter each other in an ongoing atmosphere of beautiful chaos: the mixing up and coming together of different kindred souls who all share a strong personal vision.”
Fashion Designer Rei Kawakubo, founder of Comme des Garcons, was born in Tokyo in 1942.
