If anyone has a link I would be eternally grateful

Yohji was my first fashion epiphany - the pieces I own from him are like a special combination of a cocoon and armour - I can move in them - covered protected but still me.
I have a pair of silk pants that I got in 1998 and have worn them to death - literally. There are worn areas at the lower seat section - and are now retired to a quite shelf in my closet.
After seeing the YYPH SS 2013 - I am filled with joy and anticipate being able to replace my beloved pants. The colors were joyful as well and the cut + flow of many of the pieces -
