Yohji, Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love The Looser Fit (Yohji Yamamoto Thread)

[cupper]



Then the SA told me that apparently HB's boss Oscar Pinto was informed by Yohji Inc that any topwear available in sz 1 ( except AW11 ) was originally made for Yohji-san himself, i.e. his personal wardrobe ( SS11 Priest Shirt, AW12 Blanket Blazer the other I know of ). Don't know if there's any truth in it cos someone once said also that the man himself wears sz 3? But I have seen how thin Yohji-san is in person, and he is stick thin.

This is interesting David, I've seen at least 3 SS11 jackets in size 1. In my limited experience I associated size 1 to garments not available in size 2 (priest shirt for example) but that AW12 blazer puts that theory to rest.

[Caveat]

Just purchased this cotton blazer on SZ. Anybody know what season it's from?

 

[cupper]

Caveat I would say AW08 but I'm probably wrong. Ask the seller what's the code printed on the tag.

 

[wireartists]

aw11 i think


kiko, that suit rocks.


I've seen quite a lot of sz 1's in y!, yohji wears some sz 3 garments ( I said that)

 

[rudo]

It's AW11. I believe Atelier had it.

 

[dantebykiko]

kiki that db suit is oustanding

lovely pickup too Caveat, fits quite slim according to description !

 

[dantebykiko]

alfonso is right. aw11 look1 in black cotton. i have size 1 jacket from ss07 and it fits okey not too slim. i doubt yohji makes size1 so he can wear it there are very small japanese people who like yohji and size 1 looks on them as size 3 looks on model.

Thanks so much guys, especially kiko for the runway shot. Even more pumped about it now.

I was looking at those leg warmers too

I may just combine some type of tights + cropped pants with my Yohji knit in F/W '13
Seems like a real cool idea and I like the whole layered visual apperance with shorts + tights.

Please post a clearer photo Shah when you decide to incorporate the new piece in an outfit.

edit:
The suspender pants are also really cool but linen
Need some F/W pants
