'11 FW Yohji Yamamoto

2011 Fall/Winter
Yohji Yamamoto

Backstage after tonight's show, 68-year-old, soft-voiced Yohji Yamamoto was raising the clarion call to the youth of the world. "I felt, in this moment, we need flower power," he said. "But at the same time, we need young people's anger." Of course, even something like anarchic rebellion has a uniform, and so Yamamoto carried forward his ominous punk sensibility from Spring. But this time around there was a lightness to it, starting with a high, cotton-candy swirl of hair that looked like Marie Antoinette on the Bowery, and also present in fragile, webby knits and photo-printed black mesh with negative images of flowers, cut into gauzy layers.
