Junya Watanabe Avaricious Tank Top – SS06

𝕯𝖊𝖙𝖆𝖎𝖑𝖘 Influenced by the works of former assistant and fellow designer Jun Takahashi of Undercover, for his Spring/Summer 2006 collection, Junya Watanabe wanted to break the boundaries of the ordinary veering away from the increasingly minimal designs of the time by composing an over-the-top collection full of heavy-stomping combat boots paired with ripped crochet leggings, distressed leather, and chopped-up tour t-shirts – a collection inspired by the Japanese punk band Mad Capture Maggots. “Avaricious; Avarice – insatiable greed for riches; inordinate, miserly desire to gain and hoard wealth.” Coming from one of my favorite Junya Watanabe seasons, here we have an eye-catching tank top from Junya Watanabe’s Spring/Summer 2006 collection. Boasting a punk-inspired band tee design reminiscent of the collections various themes, this piece features an elegantly faded vampire graphic with “AVARICIOUS” typography screen-printed onto a high-quality 100% Japanese cotton garment.
