Junya Watanabe AW2005 “Wetterstein” Reconstructed Longsleeve
Junya Watanabe was annexed into the Comme Des Garcons universe as soon as he graduated from the Bunka Fashion Institute in Tokyo in the year 1894. He worked as a pattern maker until he was promoted to design director of the CDG knitwear line ‘Tricot.’ In 1992 he released his first collection to the world under the Comme Des Garçons umbrella. Although he could have left to pursue his own path, he decided to keep the CDG title in order to streamline the production of his collections, as well as out of respect for Rei Kawakubo’s set of ‘Kachikan.’ This is the code of ethics that Rei believes to keep all of the aspects of Comme Des Garçons, interconnected. Rei is consumed by the general concept of creating differences in a world filled of similarities. Junya’s avant-garde cutting and high-level pattern making allow for him to create an anomalous wardrobe for the man and the women alike, which resonates with the Kachikan of Rei and the Comme Des Garçons brand.
This multicolored long sleeve t-shirt is composed of a smooth cotton front in conjunction with mesh and thermal fabric additions on the sleeves and the back. The graphics and text relate to a mountain in the Wetterstein range of Germany. The highest peak in that range and in the country of Germany is named Zugspitze. As the T-shirt suggests, the summit is 3003 meters in altitude.
Marked size S (please refer to measurements):
Shoulder: 50cm
