The arguable height of Jun’s Undercover lable from fw02 to aw06, where almost every season during is largely celebrated among the fashion community even today, stems from Jun’s proposal of radical beauty. Jun’s initial motifs, mostly punk, has marinated from his earlier collections such as fw97 tokyo collection, from a observational recollection of punk styles, to a high standard beauty, either in the clothes itself or the idea of clothes. Jun’s surrealistic approach fascinated and captured the hearts of the fashion scene, most notably his first paris runway show, ss03 “Scab”, which Jun’s fully dedicated presentation of punk ideal , he talks of the “patches” used extensively in the season similar to scabs on the human body. Where as in aw06, the idea pf the collection is presented as simply wrapping clothes around the body, but in an artsy way. The collection with a strong sense of borrowing from margiela fw95, masks its models to the full degree that it creates such a strong presence with a hint of horror, along with the pretty clothes. Jun’s capability to reinvent what clothes are and fully taking it on as an art form, made him one of most notable modern fashion designers.

This jacket is a very simple yet effective demonstration of Jun’s radical beauty ideal, ss04 formulated one of the most iconic fashion shows of all time, by sending models down the runway in pairs, each wearing essentially the same clothes but one with a completely distorted silhouette and providing a comprehensive presentation of comparison and understanding of a somewhat hard to execute otherwise concept.

Notice the details on this piece, where it was expertly cut and distressed to result in a such a distorted and rippled fashion, with large gaps between buttons means that the front is hanging loosely and create a ripple like visual. Also notable are the elongated elbow spaces created for the elbows to recreate a used stretching of denim. Also distress trompe l’oeil effects. This grey version is very rare and never seen anywhere else.
