Comme Des Garçons (CDG) is one of the most recognizable brands in the fashion industry. Between thought-provoking collections and appearances on celebrities like Kanye West, Justin Bieber, and Drake, as well as collaborations with the likes of Converse, Nike, and Supreme - Comme Des Garçons has established itself an industry staple. Nearly everyone knows the famous heart logo, but not as many know the wild story behind it.
