Is it right to assume that Yohji Yamamoto was going harder than ever on his identity related to the color black this season? In any case, the presentation film of his AW21 collection really makes you dive into the dark waters. The pieces seem to be more minimalistic than ever too, there are a lot less style lines than usual in a Yamamoto collection, in revenge for that; volume has expanded in this season. Not any ordinary oversized volume, rather it is a very sculptural way of expanding the body, almost like you would inflate the silhouette which remains nevertheless light . The messages of protest printed on the garments are also a new vibe. Proof that fashion can not keep only selling dreams, it must also engage in social reality.
