Played out in a romantic, African-inspired adventure, Junya Watanabe took the animal to the markets with her Spring/Summer 2009 collection ‘Make do and Mend’. Balancing enormous headdresses of dried flowers tied with gingham or broderie anglais swatches, the girls were drenched in charming African prints of red, green, blue and white. Introducing a folky look with pinafore dresses worn over rolled up denim jeans and long skirts worn low on the hips (to show a flash of leopard print G-string), with the prints bursting out as frilled, asymmetric hemlines. A feast of spring colours and patterns.
