Military Influences In Fashion

Several years ago, military styles become popular in fashion. We can find many designs which catch our eyes, such as trench coats or just a detail like epaulets. Basically, I mostly see the military style of clothes on the runway shows are coats, jackets, and suits. However, interestingly, I would like to introduce the Fall 2010 Ready-to-Wear collection by Junya Watanabe in Paris. In fact, his works are conceptualizing war as a theme by concentrating the eyes on skirts. By the way, I was also impressive about the hairstyle of these models.

"Flared, flouncy, pleated, and generally bursting into swishy lower-body volume, they represented a brilliantly focused resolution of one way the fashionable silhouette is being reshaped for winter." said Sarah Mower on Style.com.
Junya Watanabe also used a lot of elements and styles of military in his design, such as parkas, anoraks, camouflage print, and flight jackets. I think he did a great job to put these different clothing style together throughout the topic of military. For example, he can match jacket, drapery skirts and legging together, but it is still logic and makes senses. Also, these drapery skirts are so fabulous and help the military style express more feminine. Especially, I like the dress with camouflage print on it. It is a very beautiful print and it is also very interesting idea to create a comtrast between miliatry and feminine style.
