Reviews
"[A] substantial survey. . . . Kawakubo calls her clothes 'objects for the body, ' and this catalog allows those objects to speak to readers who understand that fashion goes beyond what you're wearing to work tomorrow."--Library Journal
"The catalog is a collector's piece . . . the 240-page book is minimal, arresting, and impossibly chic."--Elle
"The beautifully produced catalogue offers much that is not in the exhibition . . . Kawakubo's musings at the Met are high expressions of her life on this planet and also collaborations with her design team"--Jan Garden Castro, Woman's Art Journal
