Tokyo is fantastic, and I can't get over how relatively little YY costs here. It seems like I bought the last one of these blazers in size 2 in Japan for 88.000. I grabbed a pair of basic drawstring gabardine trousers for 50.000 as well, which means that this cost me just a little bit over 1000 euros. The blazer alone retails for around 1500 euros in Europe!

Yes, I tried that very tunic on in the Rue Chambon store. Very soft and luxurious but I couldn't see myself wearing it out that often except perhaps at home. Beautiful piece though.

Yup, got the tunic from idol and it is amazing. Sheer 100% cotton lux fabric. Btw it fits very slim, I'm usually a 2, but in order to get more like a "tunic" fit, I sized up to 4.

Tonight.
Looking forward to see what the Master has done with AW15. It would be a tough act to follow after the terrific, epic ( imo ) AW14 Femme ( the futon coats, prints, volume...) but if anyone can do it, he can :)

YYPH SS00 "seatbelt" coat (Awesome fabric. I picked up the full runway setup from wireartist a while backCan't remember composition of the fabric, but it is incredibly light. Sleeves are lined in silk and it feels very luxurious. There is a strip on the side vent that allows for some great fabric movement when in motion. Not sure I could capture it properly in the image, but I tried.

YYPH SS04 drawstring wrap trousers (New acquisition and my first SS04 piece. The cut of the pants is really great. It has two long strips of fabric running down the back that can be tied in multiple configurations. I just used them to make a sash in this case, but I have also worn them as a bow to the side with a shirt tucked in.)
YYPH SS12 sneakers
