ABOUT YOHJI YAMAMOTO
Since 1981, Yohji Yamamoto has been revolutionizing the fashion world through his philosophy of “conquering fashion through antithesis” – namely, an antithesis to traditional Western clothing. Armed with a spirit of rebellion, he expresses his design philosophy through creating pieces that have endured the test of time, and which challenge taboos and propose radical convictions.
The Yohji Yamamoto eyewear collection evokes the Master’s original brief – ‘Dramatic, Intelligent and Avant-Garde’. Each style is a balance of volume and lightness, mixing airy, industrial metals with rich textures in strong silhouettes. Darkness and deconstructed tailoring remain the poetic signature of Yohji Yamamoto. It is the space between, the attitude, that reigns supreme. French government awards Chevalier de l’Ordere des Arts et des Lettres (1994), Officier de l’Ordre National du Mérite (2005) and Commandeur de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres (2011).
