Junya Watanabe SS22/Eastern Reminiscence- the collection is out of a dream…

Dear Shaded Viewers, 

Some collections just make you dream, the nostalgia for Asia, the altitude, the atmosphere, the fluid sensual draping, the colours, the prints, the gold…one word…Heavenly.

Later,

Diane

Junya Watanabe chose to show his collection in Tokyo this season inspired by the photographs of Jamie Hawkesworth’s trip to Bhutan, India and Kashmir.

« I felt the pure heart of the people through the photographs of Jamie Hawkesworth’s trip to Bhutan, India and Kashmir, and became nostalgic for Asia. This collection is an expression of this sentiment. » Junya Watanabe

 

As a compliment to Jamie’s photography, Watanabe sourced prints and illustrations from a variety of international artists:

 

-Phannapast Taychamaythakool

-Ang Tsherin Sherpa
-Wang Dongling
-Jacky Tsai

-Keiichi Tanaami
