Artists are compelled to draw. It's the purest expression of the human imagination. Archived for more than twenty years and now presented together for the first time, almost two hundred fashion sketches by Yohji Yamamoto capture his designs from 1981 to 1999. Each illustration stands as a symbol of radical invention and technical precision. Curated by Alexandre Samson and Yohji Yamamoto himself, this exceptional collection is a rare record of the creative essence of a singular designer, and an inspirational volume designed to ignite the emotions and imaginations of the next generation of artists.
With art direction and design by Giulia Garbin and Peter Saville.
