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

    whats up guys, hey bene, i remember you saying sometime ago about how 'incongruent' you felt of the choices of frames you've seen on people in yohji's clothes. this is just my opinion but your frame looks odd in relation to what you're wearing. to me they look like a pair, kanye dons on his...

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

    Hey guys, I've been wearing my jacket and pants for at least 4 days of the week for over two months. They both smell fine, but I've had an itch to give 'em both a wash. I handwash my pants(which are wool) but I'm not so sure about handwashing the yohji jacket (its...

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

    damn, those are some fantastic scores for your girl kiko. i'd love to search for my mum some yohji, but absolutely clueless on sizing so that puts me off. i don't think ive posted a proper fit (the previous one was a shoddy iphone shot) so here's a clearer shot of the jacket i got of...

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

     I think the pants on their own are fine but what is bringing down the whole get-up to average territory is the styling(i feel this might be the wrong word). Lets forget about colour and just think of shape. That t-shirt is killing the whole thing with its proportions. The combination of...

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

    would any of you guys be willing to help me identify the fabric used for pants in these two looks on the accompanying video(YYPH SS12, 2.45-2.50, 3-.05-3.10). im enlisting the help of a friend to make a skirt and it'd really help if i could translate to her my ideas on the feel of it.

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

    The quality of opinions on this thread is so good that i confess to screenshot certain posts. Sometimes, I feel a void when I feel something yet have nowhere near the ability needed to put it into permanence as words but I can only be happy when another is able to fill that void of mine. Syed...

    coldeyedpugilist, can't say im too knowledgeable with the units, never took part in any of that BMT. straight up admin from the get-go. singapores been fun in some ways, not so in others but thats how things are i guess. i've not really explored this whole place apart from the 'yohji' thread...

    @prof. b. bear, nope, you can't defer due to the reason of an athletic career. i mean, it should be treated like any other career. and i wasn't able to defer due to the reason of undertaking tertiary studies because i was doing it in another country. @pasey25, not in the market for a suit right...

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

    I feel you there. Not there yet, but hoping to be there about 'being in your own bubble'. Hope this is a worthwhile thought to voice but I was reading about Basquiat and his wearing of Armani suits while painting. I'm not quite knowledgeable with fashion history so I'm not quite sure what a...

    Never said it was difficult, all I said it's not where I wanted to be. It's a farce really, dragging me back for two years to only strip me of my citizenship? And no, I wouldn't be that dumb in the head to subject myself to their whims and hierarchal structure and run around taking their orders...

    I can't say it's where I want to be right now/only here to complete military service. In a way though, my time here has helped me progress as a person/with style so I'm grateful. Do you have any connections here, is why asked? Whats been happening over in Australia lately?
