Colour disturbs people. I am confident in black, not in light. This dark side of life is attractive to me forever and from the beginning. I am a lazy designer when it comes to colour.

Yohji YamamotoI hate fashion. Or the word fashion, which sounds colorful, extravagant, expensive and gorgeous. โI never wanted to walk the main street of fashion. I have been walking the sidewalks of fashion from the beginning, so Iโm a bit dark.
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.
