Re: The Yohji World
Just a couple of additional points:
1 YY Jeans pour Homme is a definable label, but not as a collection on its own. When he produces jeans for the mainline they are issued under this label. I have a couple of pairs.
2 He still occasionally releases Yohji Y Addidas as part of the mainline, separately from Y-3. This is typically where sports shoes form an integral part of the collection. Generallythey are not terribly succesful if you ask me (there were some electric blue tiger print football boots recently), although they are terribly expensive!
3 There used to be a separate "strand" of Y's/Y's for Men called Y's At Work, which was, as the name suggests, workwear inpsired. Some jeans issued under the Y's brand were labelled like this.
Laika, I love that collection from Winter 03. Those colourful voluminous knits are amazing
