Undercover’s Jun Takahashi is a master at making wonderfully weird runway fashion, but he’s also a dab hand at funnelling that creative energy into clothing women can easily throw on.This pre-fall collection centred on the brand’s continued exploration of docking, i.e. the practice of splicing two seemingly disparate garments into one.
