Yohji Yamamoto at V&A

March 15th saw the opening of Yohji Yamamoto exhibition at V&A. I told you about this event before and I hope you will go if you have a chance. I went and I loved it. There has been a big demand for Japanese and Asian designers, with many of them taking over the world of fashion. Yohji is known for his use of unusual fabrics and playing with cut and shapes and his designs are incredible. There's quite a few on display, including menswear. You can also watch plenty of his catwalk shows on little screens provided and see his extraordinary look books. It's an exhibition not to be missed. And it doesn't end there! V&A are organizing lots of events, including a talk with Yohji Yamamoto himself and their popular fashion in motion (live catwalk show). For more info check out their website vam.ac.uk
Have a stylish day.

Yohji Yamamoto at V&A

I am excited to announce another great exhibition at V&A. They've been really spoiling us lately with some amazing showcases and I am sure this one will not dissapoint . It's going to be running between 12 March – 10 July 2011 so plenty of time to plan your visit ahead but this show is not to be missed. I will remind you nearer the time, so you won't forget.
It is the first UK solo exhibition celebrating the life and work of Yohji Yamamoto, one of the world's most influential and enigmatic fashion designers. This installation-based retrospective, taking place 30 years after his Paris debut, will feature over 80 garments spanning Yamamoto's career. The exhibition will explore the work of a designer who has challenged, provoked and inspired the fashion world. - V&A
