9 Quotes: 学「日本潮流教母」当一个时尚又有态度的女人！

曾几何时，很多自称潮人的少男少女都非常迷Comme des Garcons这个品牌，一个长了眼睛的黑色红色心心是时尚还是身份象徵，就只有他们才知。但假若你连品牌创办人川久保玲也不知道的话，也不用告诉别人你是「Garcons迷」了。若果说Vivienne Westwood是英国的潮流教母，那来自东瀛的代表人物必定非川久保玲莫属。

被时尚界誉为「流行先锋」、「日本时尚教母」的川久保玲，一直被视为日本时尚界最重要的叁位设计师之一。她擅长的不对称、不规则、立体波浪风格，在她第一次带上巴黎时装展舞台时就已经让世界惊艳，前卫独立的路线更让她的品牌别树一格，多年来都站稳时尚界。但不说不知，川久保玲原来并不是「红裤子」出身，在她出道前从未读过任何有关时装设计的课程。从零知识到成为今日的教母，川久保玲靠的除了是天赋和在毕业後在布料公司上班的经验，就是她对时尚的一套独特体会和理解。各位潮人们，在光顾品牌之馀，不妨也了解一下这位创办人背後的智慧吧。

Fashion is something you attach to yourself, put on, and through that interaction the meaning of it is born. Without the wearing of it, it has no meaning, unlike a piece of art. It is fashion because people want to buy it now, because they want to wear it now, today. Fashion is only the right now.

和艺术不一样，如果你没有把它穿上，时尚/时装两个字不会有任何意义。时装对於人们来说，就是现在想买和想穿的东西。

Comme des Garcons is a gift to oneself, not something to appeal or to attract the opposite sex.

One should buy clothes because of how they make you feel, not look.

There is a kind of burnout – people just want cheap fast clothes and are happy to look like everyone else.

有一种职业倦怠是－人们追求便宜的快速时尚，当他们和其他人穿得一样也会感到开心。

If I do something I think is new, it will be misunderstood, but if people like it, I will be disappointed because I haven’t pushed them enough. The more people hate it, maybe the newer it is. Because the fundamental human problem is that people are afraid of change. The place I am always looking for-because in order to keep the business I need to make a little compromise between my values and customers’ values-is the place where I make something that could almost-but not quite-be understood by everyone.

对我来说是新的设计通常会备受误会；但如果人们喜欢，我会感到失望因为那代表我还未把设计推到另一个境界。人们最致命的弱点是他们害怕改变，所以当我要经营这个品牌，就需要妥协，所以我常常会设计一些人们可能可以完全明白；或不太能解释的设计。

I built my work from within instead of satisfying a demand for sexualised clothing.

我设计是发自内心的，不会为了满足性化衣服的需求而设计。
