The ragtag bunch of models who make up the cast of each of #JunyaWatanabe shows are so deliberate they don’t only support the clothing physically but ideologically as well. Take #Spring2017, where swaggering and heavily inked sorts meandered menacingly toward the audience, confronting each bench of onlookers with a sneer. The small-town big man was Watanabe’s jump-off point—gangsters, hustlers, general ne’er-do-wells. Boys from the wrong side of the tracks.
