Comme Des Garcons, New York, New York, us, 10261
Job Details
Job LocationDSM NY - New York, NY
Salary Range$20.00 - $24.00 Hourly
Description
"I want to create a kind of market where various creators from various fields gather together and encounter each other in an ongoing atmosphere of beautiful chaos: the mixing up and coming together of different kindred souls who all share strong personal vision." - Rei Kawakubo.
Dover Street Market New York opened in 2013 - it was the Store's third location worldwide and first in the US. Like its predecessors Dover Street Market London and Dover Street Market Ginza, it was conceived and designed by Rei Kawakubo and subscribes to the philosophy of 'beautiful chaos' - the accidental synergy that results from independent minds, each with something original to say, colliding together in one space. In 2018, Dover Street Market Los Angeles opened cementing its place on the West Coast.
There are no set criteria for DSM. Both locations house all Comme des Garçons brands, and also boast a selection of designers that range from the established to the emerging, in addition to traditional products outside the realm of fashion. Designers have been given complete freedom to determine their individual brand spaces - the result being those collections as diverse as Azzedine Alaïa, Supreme, Sacai and Nike live alongside one another in an unexpected harmony.
A sense of discovery lies at the heart of DSM. Rounding out the DSM experience is the addition of Rose Bakery on the ground floor. Rose and Jean Charles Carrarini's café is renowned for its signature fresh and natural food and is now a mainstay of DSMs around the world.
