I think that it is because I am not satisfied with what I did every season. It would be easy to compare to mountain climbing. When climbing, I do not look backwards behind how far I came, only the next step is in my mind, I have not reached the summit yet!
Rei Kawakubo said : Comme des Garcons is more than just making clothes. Where they are sold is as important as clothes. The staff's name tag is also important. I am a designer of this company. As time goes by, it is difficult to maintain that standard.
Does not everyone want freedom?
