Internationally-acclaimed designer Junya Watanabe was the mastermind behind the fifth pattern offered as part of our Design_Download series of online clothing patterns. Offering a garment straight from his Autumn/Winter 2005 catwalk, Watanabe's contribution fuses the traditions of French couture with a decidedly twenty-first century subversive streak.
