The Spring/Summer 2025 collections from tao and noir kei ninomiya, two brands within COMME des GARCONS, have arrived!
We'll be introducing exciting, unique, and distinctive items.
First up is noir, with the theme "DARK ROSE."
noir kei ninomiya Wool Ox Dress [3O-A-008-051]
A wonderful dress, very noir, featuring a belt.
The upper body only has puff sleeves, connected by the belt.
The skirt design is similar to the Cotton Broad Skirt [3O-S006-051] which I'll introduce later.
The fabric is soft and drapes beautifully, and the cupro lining makes it very comfortable to wear.
And guess what? The puff sleeves are removable!
When removed, you can wear it as a sleek jumper skirt, offering two fantastic looks.
It's so cute!
What's more, you can even wear just the sleeves, giving you not two, but three ways to enjoy it.
You can play around with it in various ways.
There might be other ways to use it that I don't know about.
If you discover any, please let me know!
noir kei ninomiya Nylon Tulle Skirt [3O-S005-051]
The tulle in this noir collection is red.
The contrast with black is beautiful.
Incidentally, the tulle is double-layered, and the upper part can also be detached with clips.
It's also available in black and white color variations.
Soft and smooth tulle fabric.
The shades of transparency are as beautiful as art. I'm captivated.
noir kei ninomiya Cotton Ponti Top [3O-T005-051]
For the classic, tightly woven, high-quality cotton jersey T-shirt,
the shoulder pads are now made of cotton fabric.

noir kei ninomiya Cotton Broad Blouse [3O-B005-051]
noir kei ninomiya Cotton Broad Skirt [3O-S006-051]
We also have a tank top-style tulle.
Although hard to see, this also has clips, allowing you to remove the layered tulle.
The skirt has a clean silhouette, with tulle at the hem, making it an easy design for everyday wear.
If you could have one, which would you choose?
When I asked this silly question, a staff member chose this skirt and said, "This one!"
It would look cute paired with sneakers too!
noir kei ninomiya Cotton Broad Blouse [3O-B005-051]
I'm wearing the black one in the outfit above, but it's hard to see, so I'll introduce it here.
This is a shirt with lips as its iconic motif for this season.
The sides feature inverted lips!
noir kei ninomiya Cotton Broad Blouse [3O-B004-051]
The long sleeves also feature lips.
There are a total of four inverted lips at the hem, two on each side, front and back.
It's a sophisticated and stylish adult blouse with a twist that you might not notice unless told.
The overall shape looks sleek, and it's incredibly, incredibly cool.

noir kei ninomiya Cotton Broad Skirt [3O-S006-051]
The manufacturer's representative recommended this balloon skirt, assuring us it was a sure thing.
It's made of a crisp fabric, with a teardrop shape that gives it a lower center of gravity.
It's integrated with the lining.
If I could have one, I'd choose this one, haha.
Next up.
tao's theme is Tove Jansson, the famous creator of Moomin.
tao Cotton Jersey Print T-shirt [TO-T008-051]
tao Cotton Dobby Print Skirt [TO-S018-051]
Isn't this print adorable?
Apparently, it's the world's first printed T-shirt, and it looks great from every angle.
There are many T-shirts out there, but it's surprisingly hard to find "the one," isn't it?
I (personally) think this is "the one."
While it's an artistic piece I'd love to frame and display, I also think it would be cute to wear an outer layer over it and let it peek out.
tao Rayon Nylon Lace Needlework x Ester Wool Jersey Coat [TN-C012-051]
This coat isn't from the Spring/Summer collection, but it has a long wearing season and a great design, yet it hasn't found a home...
By the way, it's on sale.
tao Cotton Dobby Print Skirt [TO-S018-051]
There's not much to say; it's cute to look at, and even cuter when worn.
It's lightweight, double-faced with black fabric on the inside to prevent transparency, so it's sure to be useful all summer long!
tao Wool Ester Tropical Yarn-dyed Skirt [TO-S017-051]
While I was dawdling, this colored skirt was sold...
It's a lightweight skirt that owner N regretted not getting.
It's okay (?), we still have black!
tao Cotton Broad Blouse [TO-B007-051]
tao Wool Ester Tropical Yarn-dyed Skirt [TO-S017-051]
This season's tao features decorative sleeves.
A single piece that can be the star of an outfit.
Despite the understated colors, it still catches the eye.
tao Cotton Broad Blouse [TO-B007-051]
The three-dimensional craftsmanship is amazing.
Both the designers and the makers are incredibly talented. It's truly art.
This time, using the same fabric, instead of decorative sleeves, the front features three-dimensional ruffles.
tao Cotton Broad Blouse [TO-B008-051]
It's nice on its own, but when you wear a jacket or coat (open front), the ruffles look exceptionally good.
The ruffles are double-layered and sturdy.
We also have jackets in the decorative sleeve series (?).
The jackets use even more fabric and have a bow at the back.
So incredibly cute!
tao Cotton Gabardine Jacket [TO-J005-051]
It's a special piece from every angle!
And I imagine many of you are curious?
Finally, let me introduce some truly eye-catching footwear.
tao Steer Smooth Shoes [TO-K103-001]
Available in two colors: black and white.
These shoes make the wearer look cutest, haha.
This is what they look like from above.
Now, anywhere you walk will feel special.
You'll want to take selfies constantly.
By the way, they're surprisingly comfortable to wear! (They feel a bit plush)
tao Steer Smooth Side Gore Boots [TO-K104-001]
For the side gore type, we only selected black.
From a distance, the decorative elements are less pronounced, giving the impression of slightly platform shoes.
Most importantly, you'll enjoy wearing them the most.
This season has just begun.
New arrivals will continue monthly until May, so please look forward to them!
