Mini-length pleated skirt (W42)

Junya Watanabe's show evoked a vision of 18th-century innocent milkmaids parachuting into a meadow filled with blooming summer flowers. The models wore oversized, airy hats resembling giant umbrellas, and drifted in white floral prints suspended by webbing tape, creating the impression that they had gently floated down from the sky. Yes, webbing tape: Watanabe transformed this combat-inspired trend, which has been seen everywhere this season, into something beautifully dreamlike. His prints, made from fabric in shades of blue and white with scattered roses, were crafted into cropped pants, dresses with raised hems, and ruched shorts. Thoughtfully, he paired these pastoral outfits with backpacks, some of which were seamlessly integrated into the garments themselves.

The collection features wingtip dress shoes and a 1970s vibe, with this mini-length pleated skirt also evoking the trends of that era.
