    ok, unless you are funding you know what, are you crazy??
    i'm sure its a well thought out, rational decision but you must realize... how good you look in it before you sell it.

      Thanks. I think I might well be crazy, especially when I remember how ecstatic I was when I got it. But I have never had a chance to wear it, and doubt I ever will. It deserves a new home, where it can be enjoyed and admired.

        It deserves home in a museum, where it can be admired by many.

        Iconic.

          Could you perhaps revive the photos? Dying to see it after reading the above replies.

              You can't see the photos?

                  Seems like it was a problem with the imagehost - thanks for letting me know. They should be working now.

                    Yes, they are working now! And agreed, selling any Yohji from that era would be a crime.

                      God, I would *love* to own such a gorgeous piece from this iconic collection. Unfortunately, I'm writing now (not being paid, in other words.)

                      Such bad timing Me!
