Yohji Yamamoto
Yohji Yamamoto Menswear Collection
With fashion lines that actively divert away from current trends, Yoji Yamamoto offers creative collections that are imaginative and idealist in their design. Born in Tokyo, this prominently Japanese fashion designer first established himself on the catwalks in his home country in the early 1970s.
With such innovative pieces, his collections were quickly picked up and new lines were introduced in to the Paris and New York fashion weeks. His own line not only brought him great success but collaborations with top name fashion houses marked him as one of the leading designers to come out of Asia. His joint efforts with Adidas creating the bespoke range Y-3 held him as not only an inventive designer but one who could produce ranges for all styles of individuals.
Known for his signature oversized silhouettes that feature traditional styles with a twist, in his A/W09 collection you won’t be surprised to find heavily draped suits, eccentric layering and dashes of daring colour. His collection is a true reflection of the modern man who isn’t afraid to be original.
