BEAUTY: Clothing--Junya Watanabe

Wow, what an incredible array of coats, jackets (and suits) Junya Watanabe sent out for his SS '26 collection at Paris Fashion Week. They resemble tapestry and jacquard materials from various time-style periods past (Rococo, Baroque, and Romanesque) with one presenting an illuminated Latin manuscript. There were also cut velvet stripes, fleur-de-lis, and large florals. Later in the show, the cut of the jackets became more casual--worker, biker, denim--but sported images of cities like Florence, Venice, and Bruges. Each one is a work of art.
