Rei Kawakubo - Reviews
| "While John Waters was able to devote a whole chapter in his recent tome to the brilliance that is Rei Kawakubo, we get a little lost for words in her presence. Thanks heavens, then, for this celebration of the history and art of all her work to help fill in the gaps. To us it’s a holy book, with images provided by iconographers such as David Bailey and Emma Summerton."— 10 Magazine, London, United Kingdom |
