I wanted to re-use the original formula presented on Junya Watanabe’s FW12 look, but looking at this, I think I needed a stronger makeup, and up my oxfords game. Perhaps the navy/black colour palette isn’t quite as compelling too. Plenty of factors to re-consider, hmmm…..

And then there’s the most important factor that is us, the wearers, looking nothing like the gazelles on the catwalk. Physical attributes aside, they are meant to be mannequins, to fade into the clothes, while as the wearers, we infuse a little bit of ourselves into the clothes, so no matter what we do the overall image will be altered.
