" les japonais jouent 'les miserables'
...ce miserabilisme n'est pas pour vous. ni ces rapiecages, ni ces hardes toutes neuves, ni ces etoffes nouees a la hate comme des guenilles. ni ce tout noir pour jours d'obseques. ni ce maquillage livide de femmes decomposees. un snobisme de la guenille qui laisse mal presager de l'avenir. "
anyone have additional pics of the red is the new black collection? I've only heard of it, the magazine scan above is the first photo evidence I've seen
Junya Watanabe ss99. I didn't find the same item exactly, but here are a few gorgeous looks !
And finally, does someone know which collection does the item in this picture comes from ? The cut is so beautiful... Like paper cutting with scissors, so delicate, it's amazing
Could anyone explain to me the differende between junya watanabe man and eye jnya watanabe?
BUT watch out for Junya Watanabe Man Pink, which is women's clothing based on popular designs and using techniques of men's tailoring.
Oh, so many concepts. It's must be either incredible fun or a nightmare working for Rei. (Ask Tao.)

I thought posting photos of some great pieces would fit this thread. Since they are from past ebay offers and such, I don't have all the details needed for the garments archive. If anyone minds this kind of posts in this thread, let me know.
i think this is a good idea! i have been saving some various pics from ebay and yahoo.jp but would feel awkward posting them in the archives because they're not mine, and i don't have all the info as you say.
lumina, that junya collection is just incredible, thanks for sharing
I don't think it's possible to do a good interview with Rei because of the language barrier and her reluctance to discuss her work in detail. If The New Yorker couldn't do it, no one can.
