Junya Watanabe Comme Des Garcons SS 2012 Silver Kimono-Style Sleeve Lace Dress

Watanabe's contribution to Comme Des Garcons is the pinnacle of the house's favored eccentricity and craftsmanship. This dress is a silver, glimmering testament to Watanabe's (according to him, unintentional) references to his Japanese roots and the modernity of high fashion.  Like a silvery cloud or a crystal reflecting river, one can interpret the lace designs as many things; whether its fantastic silvery dragon heads or beautiful paisley leaves, this design evokes creativity...and it's enchanting. Arms weave through the cut sleeve to reveal a tiered back draping and a sliced front sleeve silhouette- raise the arms and the powerful kimono bell sleeve combo shines. A tall boat neck channels regal essence. Estimated US Size 6. Sleeve length 12" from opening to fabric loop. Back zipper and hook closure. Excellent condition, no notable flaws. Semi-sheer.
