In The Studio With: migh-T's Kumiko Watari

When it's kind of chilly and breezy (read: a night like last night), sometimes you just want to curl up in something comfy. And if it has a hint of Marc by Marc and/or PPQ, so be it.

That's where Kumiko Watari comes in. The Kyoto City-trained designer (and Central St Martins grad) has come out with migh-T, a line of t-shirts and t-shirt dresses that make these jersey pieces anything but a sartorial last resort. She talks to The Fash Pack about Bjork, sushi and keeping a sense of humour.
