So good! I love that he riffs on a single but new idea each season for his women's wear. Really shows his genius for exploring all the facets and transformations of a single concept.

Couldn't agree more. He is a true master at variations on the theme. It's like meditation.

I also appreciate how memorable each collection is as a result though occasionally only because of that focus. Even the coachella ss14 collection has stuck faintly in my mind.

As for this collection, I prefer those pieces that use a 'solid' (whether actually solid or solid by compression) hive fabric. The looks with the netted hive fabric that I found most successful are those where Junya creates a sort of ombre effect through compression of the cells, or those that play more with the layering to create further interest, which I wish he had used in more pieces.

Also, this is beautiful.

I actually love Junya's use of the netted fabric as the outer layer. Somehow it fits very comfortably with the rest of the fabrics, and it looks super wearable and cool. The hats, however, Junya could have done without ;)

It just felt too etsy to me.

Agreed, the hats are goofy, especially compared to his past, theatrical head wear and pieces.

Well, no one could accuse this of not being next level.

I like how it's clearly the origami/paper-cutting thing we all did in kindergarten to make jellyfish, but somehow it isn't kitschy.

I see it as totally wearable, but only if you're a complete bad ass. I guess that's the reason for the tattoos.
