Comme des Garçons



Taken from the Françoise Hardy song, "Tous les garçons et les filles," (in English: "All The Boys and Girls") about feeling lonely in love, Comme des Garçons is French for "Like the Boys," an appropriate moniker for a label that consistently challenges the division between masculinity and femininity.
