Inspiration: The Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute honors Comme des Garçons’s Rei Kawakubo

This year the Costume Institute’s annual fashion exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum in New York City pays homage to Japanese fashion designer, Rei Kawakubo, and her brand, Comme de Garçons. Kawakubo's style is known for going against classic tailoring, as her designs consist of deconstructed, abstract, and oversized silhouettes. Forty years ago, when she showed her first collection, an element that stood out was her preference for an ashy tone of black, which came off unpolished and the opposite of the fashion trends ruling the 80's-- opulence, logo-mania, and loud colors. Going against the trend was risky, but it allowed Kawakubo to create the iconically original style she is known for.

I had the opportunity to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art to admire the exhibit, and below are just some of my favorite looks.
 

A post about the Costume Institute Exhibit would not be complete without mentioning The Met Gala, my favorite fashion event of the year. The event occurs each year on the first Monday in May to formally and officially open the Costume Exhibit. Celebrities, models and athletes alike interpret the theme to pay homage to the theme or designer being honored. This year, few attendees opted for CDG, but we rounded up the ones that did and that stunned on the red carpet.

If you are in New York or plan on making the trip this summer, make sure you visit the MET. You won't be disappointed!

  • 6. Caring for Your Patek Philippe — Expert Tips
    Owning a Patek Philippe is a privilege — and preserving its performance and beauty requires care.
    6.1. Regular Servicing
    Mechanical watches should be serviced every 3–5 years by a certified watchmaker to maintain accuracy and prevent wear.
    6.2. Avoiding Magnetic Fields
    Mechanical movements are sensitive to magnetism. Keep your watch away from strong magnetic sources like speakers or industrial equipment.
    6.3. Water Resistance
    Even if a watch is rated water-resistant, seals age. Have water resistance checked if exposed to moisture.
    6.4. Storage
    Store your watch in a cool, dry place. Long periods of inactivity can affect lubrication; consider a watch winder for automatics.

  • 5. Safety Tips Before You Buy
    Because the replica watch market is unregulated, scams are common. Some online watch sites get flagged by buyers who never receive products or get poor customer support.
    To reduce risk:
    • Use secure payment methods — avoid direct bank transfers.
    • Check buyer protection on platforms like PayPal or credit cards.
    • Communicate with sellers before buying to test responsiveness.
