Junya Watanabe Mens FW11 Paris

[Fade to Black]

Damn! I retract my earlier negative statements about Junya's menswear. Finally, a collection with some character...

[Faust]

By character you mean what? I don't see this as any different from his last 5 or so collections.

it seems a lot of the jkts is made from knit

[Castor]

Junya WAS a favorite designer of mine, but he seems to be stuck in an English rut these days. I wish his menswear was more in line with what he does for the girls.

[Heirloom]

i can't count the times i've said the same thing ^

[Faust]

yes, that was the underlying theme and the challenge, to take something soft (knits) and make a structured garment from it (blazers).

[Pumpfish]

This collection looks infinitely better at retail than it did in the catwalk photos.

I can only think that this style of clothing - boxy, solid - doesn't show well.

Is there usually such a disparity?

[Patroklus]

Anyone know the fabric composition on the pants in the first look?
