JUNYA WATANABE SS2010 Technical Tailored Houndstooth Blazer S

Insane houndstooth blazer by Junya Watanabe from his 2010 spring collection.

Tailored to perfection, this blazer is a work of art! This collection which focused on menswear for women was a perfect mix of avant-garde and utilitarian. Made from a synthetic material which feels similar to nylon, Watanabe blends classical tailoring with innovation. The details on this blazer are outstanding - it features strong shoulder pads, a classic notched lapel with one button hole detail, an open front with a chained button closure (which detaches on both sides), the back of the collar features a beautiful cut out and the tail of the jacket is pleated.

Such a special and unique piece!
