Imagine a multi-layered, army green camouflage dress. That’s all. Just imagine that. No need to imagine because that’s the piece I fell in love with at Yohji Yamamoto’s Paris show. Michael Kors had something similar at New York fashion week, you can see it here, it’s the fourth image I think. This piece was different in several ways, the most obvious was that it had more character. It had more details so it seemed a bit more elaborate.
The thing that got me about this show more than anything else was the variety. You had the aforemention camo dress, then you had a slinky deep red dress. Some people might call it a lack of singular direction, but I see it as less of that and more as a willingess to experiment.
Other pieces included a variety of long flowing dress/gowns with spectacularly sharp edges. One in particular was this black piece that actually flared out at a near 90 degree angle, came back in and flared out again. It was artistry in fashion form.
