The legendary Grace Coddington has been working with Comme Des Garcons to create the perfect fragrance “Grace” due out April 19. The longtime creative director announced the news on her Instagram, with an illustrated video by Jonathan Eden of her nude holding the cat-shaped bottle.

As many of you might know already, Ms.Coddignton stepped down from her full-time position at Vogue in January, to become creative director at large. This decision still gives her the freedom to do several of the magazines shoots a year, but also to pursue outside projects. Since then she has been taking every opportunity a long her way, such as this one.

Adrian Joffe, the president of Comme Des Garcons, stated in an email from Tokyo that the brand decided to team-up with Grace as she is a “true visionary.” It was then developed by Christian Astuguevieille who encouraged her to spray it into her very notable hair. The perfume smells primarily of roses, which is much associated with Coddington’s childhood, and the shape of its bottle is due to her love for cats.

This is the perfect opportunity for fashion enthusiasts who see people such as Grace Coddington, as the true celebrities of the industry, get a bit of her identity. We cannot wait to see what else is in stores for the style icon.
