Vintage Junya Watanabe green, red and royal blue print drape dress from the Spring Summer 2009 Collection. Featuring an allover abstract design, reminiscent of traditional African wax prints, the dress highlights its plisse textile technique through the twists and turns of its unique drapery. "...The beauty of it was the way Watanabe struck such a beautiful balance between tribal references and his own signatures. He used colorful "African" prints with motifs of apples, hearts, and leaves, and bunched, twisted, and draped them into tops, tunics, and dresses, steadily mixing them with faded denim, bright gingham checks, pristine eyelets, and surprise splashes of leopard spots on neon..." wrote Vogue journalist Sarah Mower. This piece is labeled a Small and is in excellent vintage condition.
