This is my dream | Yohji Yamamoto



"Beautiful things are disappearing every day. I want to keep it back. I want to say don't go too much, too far, too easy...' - Yohji Yamamoto

I have spent about half an hour talking about Yohji Yamamoto with a friend today. Trying to pin point why I admire him so much... as a man, as a dressmaker. There are a lot of reasons, but if I had to put it all in one short sentence? Because I prefer meaning to triviality and dignity to vulgarism.

Yohji Yamamoto's new documentary is coming out Spring this year. Watch the trailer here.
