Archival tricot COMME des GARÇONS cardigan from AD2001 (TE-T055). Classic early-2000s CDG construction with delicate lace paneling across the chest and body. A rare piece from the golden era of tricot — soft, lightweight cotton knit with couture-style lacework, made entirely in Japan.
Season: AD2001 Model Code: TE-T055 Made in Japan Material: 100% Cotton
Details: • Button-front cardigan • Black cotton knit • Four horizontal lace panels on the front (signature tricot detailing) • Rounded neckline • Slim, tailored fit typical of early-2000s CDG • Authentic Japanese care tags intact • Production code + red inspection stamp (standard for this era)
Condition: Great vintage condition — no holes, stains, or stretching. Minor natural signs of age typical for 2001 CDG cotton.
Why it’s special: Pieces from AD2001 are highly sought after among CDG collectors, especially tricot items with lace or applique. This exact construction appears repeatedly in early-2000s collections and aligns closely with Rei’s soft experimental knitwear direction during this period.
