I am tickled pink–in a bit of wonderment. Junya Watanbe has created something that feels French, Japanese, African and Dutch. By mixing ethnic print  with reconstructed denim, gingham and white shifts, he redefines ethnic textiles. And I find that visually thought-provoking. The headdress, which is over the top, feels right. As if a nun were taking a walk through the fields, and hands busy, decided to wrap a sheave of wheat to her head. Winning.  Winsome. Top notch!
