junya watanabe fall 2011

(not to be mistaken for fall 2006, which was one of the best collections he's done.)

the only thing that bothered me about this drawing..is that her face is extremely streaky.

sometimes when i'm just drawing, i have no patience.. 

so i don't even test out my markers,

and that's how i get streaky faces.

other than that, i don't mind this girl.

but in the end, 

if you are patient..

things like this won't happen.

i wish i had more time to work on my illustrations, could make more time to work on my illustrations, had the ability to cut out sleeping to work on my illustrations, had superpowers so i can just do everything without becoming a zombie-hermit.

i started tumblr because my desktop was cluttered with images. and then when i started tumblr i realized that i didn't actually need alot of the images. so then i just deleted them. i think i just have a problem with dragging everything on to my desktop. which equals my clutter. which equals why i end up with lots of unnecessary pile up in my room. like notebooks, and books, and pens, and brushes, and magazines, and t-shirts.

so i posted this unfinished drawing i started in december 2010 because i was reminded (while tumbling, ..tumblring? ), that i wanted to do a series of yakuza tattooed girls in clothes i love. unfortunately time is always the problem. but that's only half an excuse. hopefully i'll finish something in the near future.

meanwhile, it's 7:53 am and i have yet to finish a project for something else.

a.d.d.

junya watanabe spring 2008

more twisted days of junya

tokyodolls at junya, elegant miss honey at tao and darkness at comme.

another fantastic season for all three.
they get my heart racing
and nervous
and happy
and awe
and uncomfortable
and nostalgic
and soobsessedwitheverything
and scared
and breathless
and not blinking and too much concentration
and goosebumps
and emotional
every single time

(so much magic)

these are a few of my favorite things

fotos from an irreplaceable trip.
and this was called work? lucky girl, i am.

"are you wearing a chanel bag?" that's eddie in my junya jacket, aka one of the most amazing things made on earth.

wishful thinkings

a few nights ago, i had a dream I was in cdg's studio and i was casually speaking junya and rei. she was draping a piece of cloth on my sleeve and she was really nice.


also, the next night, i had dreamt that jun takahashi walked into the boutique i work at with his daughter and i became bff's with him via japanese conversation on gundam.



if only.

the veil by junya watanabe

"People might think that children's fears are based on imaginary monsters. Looking back nothing frighten me more than this woman in the veil,
because even as a child I realized how fragile we are and that the line between sanity and insanity can be incredibly thin."

beautifulllllll!

& i love j.p. and her gap between her front teeth. maybe even more than lara stone's...

"there is no such thing as a bad hair day"

i love hair. i love big hair. i love fake hair. i love messy hair. i love it.

i am especially in awe of katsuya kamo's work. he's a hair stylist that has done junya watanabe and undercover's shows many times. it's soooo avant garde and amazing. i love that it doesn't look perfect in any way. i mean it looks perfect- as in i love it to death. but it's not perfect as in l.a. hollywood glamour perfect. combing your hair is like, so not in. :)
