Sneak peek: the new Comme des Garcons for H&M
The news of avant-garde Comme des Garcons collaborating with H&M had the fashion flock in a froth. 
And when the higher price points -- a $350 dress! -- were announced, many sniffed in disdain. But over at RackedLA.com, editor Tasha Adams likes what she saw in a preview.
Here's her initial take:
The quality and tailoring is spectacular and precise. The $350 ruffled, pin-striped dress raised eyebrows — and this particular piece wouldn't be for us — but the price points overall seem fair. To spend $299 for a well-made, fashion-forward men's suit, a soft gray plaid done on the diagonal with one line of white stitching, is not a bad deal at all. The women's deconstructed jackets, off-kilter with exposed seams, translate very well and are not as kookie as you might think. The ballerina dress with cut-out back is extremely elegant.
The line drops on Nov. 13.
