Yohji Yamamoto's 2013 Spring/Summer collection focused on..."Volume: billowing, shortened pants, mostly, tied off at the bottom or gathered with elastic, complemented two-button jackets or long, thin coats.”

YOHJI YAMAMOTO

Fiercely uncompromising about quality and design, Yohji Yamamoto earned a nod from Japan’s Ministry of Economy in 2005 for his high-market brand. The moody menswear collection (born in 1984 from the original “Y” label) celebrates romance and fashion history, but never convention. The New York Times described Yohji’s collection best: “Mr. Yamamoto likes to dissolve sartorial boundaries.” Towing the line between somber and sensual, his critically acclaimed casuals do exactly that.
