Still standing With mass-market lines such as Play, uber-hip Japanese label Comme des Garçons may no longer be seen as a radical outsider, but that doesn’t mean the house that Rei Kawakubo built has lost its ability to delight. Take a look, for instance, at the classic black leather shoes (far left; HK$5,800) and the striking red suede shoes (left; HK$5,300). Comme des Garçons is at 10 Ice House Street, Central, tel: 2869 5906.
Glove me tender The key to braving the winds, as any experienced outdoorsman will tell you, is to accessorise correctly, which means a proper hat and gloves, of course. Cerruti 1881 can lend a hand when it comes to gloves this autumn, with a lovely black leather pair (far left; HK$2,190) that will keep you warm and looking stylish. We’re also big fans of the brown suede gloves (left; HK$1,990), with stitch detailing and elasticated wrists. Cerruti 1881 is in Pacific Place, tel: 2918 9149.
