Yohji Yamamoto A/W 2022-23 Runway Show 

March 4th 2022 7pm CET 

Hôtel de Ville de Paris

Some of Yohji Yamamoto's Japanese colleagues have been unable to return to Paris due to the (COVID-19) pandemic. Yohji Yamamoto's presentation, on the other hand, remains consistent, with models padding out in flat boots or trainers at a slow pace, allowing viewers to enjoy every elegant cut, creative twist, and drape of his densely layered outfits. 

Yohji Yamamoto's show opened with an exploration of denim, which was cut into cropped versions of the classic jean jacket or draped into asymmetrical shirtdresses with an uneven hem or short in front and long in back. White cotton shirts were also given the Yohji treatment. Cowl necks, crisscrossed torsos, as if a huge napkin had been stuffed into a collar, were all available. And his tailoring was as expressive as ever, with each jacket deconstructing itself and being subtly different. The down jackets with couture-like volumes were the most prominent pieces in the show, however, patchworks of black lace that he fashioned into a dress and egg-shaped skirt or simply tied were also standouts. 

Yohji Yamamoto that notion came to mind as he sent out a pair of models wearing bulky sweaters swaddled many layers deep and umbrella hats with long strands of yarn bordering them like falling rain at the end his performance.

Yohji Yamamoto's techniques are really trendy worldwide now. The romance of his delicate shapes has reappeared in the fashion world; proof of this can be found on other Paris runways.
