Hi Prince of Cats

For autumn/winter 1997 Rei Kawakubo designed a collection for COMME DES GARCONS HOMME PLUS and EVERYTHING was cut on the bias , including knitwear !

Alexander McQueen was a model in the runway show - very much in his pre-lyposuction days !!!

To keep on point , I have a short ' bum - starver ' jacket from that collection , and the fact that it's cut on the bias gives it a totally different feel from a coventionally cut one . It goes to prove that women CAN bring a totally different perspective to an ordinary item of a man's attire !

regards KIT
