Elizabeth Dee – the creative director and founder of Independent art fair – grew up in rural Midwest flipping through pages of fashion magazines. ‘I knew about Comme des Garçons before I first heard of Donald Judd,’ she tells Wallpaper*. The 17th edition of Dee’s industry-favourite fair, which is also its largest to date with 76 international galleries, pays homage to her first foray into the creative world with a display of 20 Comme des Garçons dresses from the last decade.
