I feel like I have become a living fossil in the fashion world. Without even noticing it, in my own collection I have moved away from the street style.
Yohji YamamotoI hate fashion. Or the word fashion, which sounds colorful, extravagant, expensive and gorgeous. āI never wanted to walk the main street of fashion. I have been walking the sidewalks of fashion from the beginning, so Iām a bit dark.
Yohji YamamotoIf you feel strongly about someone, go up to them. Pursue what you want in life. Why be shy about something like that?
Yohji YamamotoI think perfection is ugly. Somewhere in the things humans make, I want to see scars, failure, disorder, distortion.
Yohji YamamotoI exist here, now. I'm not much interested in the future. Or, more precisely put, I do not believe in the future. To exaggerate a little, I have no faith that I will still exist tomorrow or the day after. What is more, I absolutely detest retrospection. That dislike is balances only by my desire to make my way back home as quickly as possible.
