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

[davidlee388]

No, the rolls are not stitched. I need them down to the heels to match other stuff. 3 rolls best for them to stay up. Twice in this case for my length preference but they get uneven. All depends really how narrow the hems are.

PS. someone just bidded 62k yen to win a non Runway AW07 Knit Insert Blazer..... If it's someone here then congrats and please show a pic in a few weeks' time. Well, he beat my pitiful low bid, I'm pleased that Rex was beaten too lol.

rex will still deny he buys from y!

i might be very lousy, never managed to have wool gabardine stay in place for more than 5 minutes too bad because 98% of my pants are wool gabardine 100

Out of interest, would anyone more knowledgable about Yohji than me be able to tell me what season this jacket is from?
Any pictures of it on the runway as well would very much be appreciated

 

[TroubIe]

Well the sizing is numerical, and while I'm not exactly sure what year the change was made from S/M/L I am guessing it should be in the last 10 or so years.

Sorry, not much of a help but it's a start

95% sure it's from YYPH AW03, 50% sure if it's a Runway piece you'll see it in brown. I'm nowhere near my PC to help you with any pictures. I personally will haggle the usd 550 price. Good luck

Y-3 Ten Year anniversary book is pretty neat (though annoying to navigate). Some nice looks to browse.










and a recent fit pic, though not exclusively yohji

Reminds me of that yohji shoot with the Latin thugs

I just impulse bought these after stumbling across them on ebay for under £50. The seller was very light on detail (and in German, so I had to rely on Google Translate), and so I was wondering if anyone knew where to place them, collection-wise? I'd be interested in tracking down a runway shot so I can tell if the rolled cuffs are part of the design or the choice of a previous owner.

When they arrive I should have a fabric code, which should help. The seller lists the size as small, and if I infer from this that the label bears an S it helps date it.

They look very slim, but I think they're probably a fair bit bigger than they look in the photo, especially on someone with my frame.

I'm excited to see them, and it seemed not much of a risk when they're on offer for such a bizarrely reasonable price.

 

[Caveat]

David if you ever want to sell that zipped cardigan...

Great stuff!

 

[StevenE]

The drawstrings make the hems look incredible.
