Fashion in Motion: Yohji Yamamoto
















photos from here

Last Friday I had a pleasure to work at Yohji Yamamoto fashion show organised by Victoria and Albert Museum. The event featured Yamamoto's Spring/Summer 2011 collections, including menswear inspired by the V&A textile archives. The garments were modelled by real-life couples, an idea the designer first incorporated into his Spring/Summer 1999 menswear show. The show accompanies the V&A's current Yohji Yamamoto exhibition which showcases over 60 garments.
Yamamoto is famed for his abstract silhouettes, flat shoes and loyalty to the colour black, which we could see in the show. Amazing experience.
