I am really into Yohji Yamamoto this season. His menswear for fall got me high (all these fantastic coats are on my wishlist!) and now this collection for women… Hypnotic manga fantasies come alive in voluminous cocoon coats and decorated leather, like by magic! Yohji, known for using only black in his collections, said backstage, that many people told, him that he uses too much of black… So he made it again, in his own way- black, huge, huge coats worn with colourful hats; then, again these coats, but with hand-painted yellow roses on! Some kind of eyes, mouths, toys, monsters came across. Acid coloured trolls and one-eyed demons became part of a hypnotic Japanese manga print that adorned enormous goose down padded coats. While hand painted illustrations of astronauts and leopards decorated leather coats. And then, the ‘hair’ was crafted from coloured wool into extreme shapes, like abstract paintings. Each model was marked with black paint around their eyes, like fantasy warriors. That show got really something in it… Maybe because we came to Yamamoto’s genius once again?
