About this collection
Autumn/Winter 2022 gave Junya Watanabe MAN a distinctive cultural hook through its digital-film presentation and widely noted Jamiroquai / Virtual Insanity reference. The Jay Kay association, fuzzy bucket hats and music-video memory brought a clearer image than many surrounding MAN seasons, while still fitting Watanabe’s habit of filtering recognisable codes through product, styling and garment archetypes. Within the pandemic-era digital sequence, its impact is more atmospheric than runway-defining, but it adds a memorable pop reference to the line’s menswear archive.
