Yohji Yamamoto is one of fashion's continual innovators and this stunning book is a fascinating insight into his working approach and relationships with other creative practitioners. It places Yamamoto's work in context and includes an insightful interview with Yamamoto as well as a round table discussion with some of his key collaborators including Nick Knight, Peter Saville and Marc Ascoli. Photographer Max Vadukal, who has been working with Yohji Yamamoto for over 25 years, is interviewed by Terry Jones and long-time collaborator Masao Nihei contributes an essay on some of the wider influences on Yohji Yamamoto's designs and their presentation. Beautifully illustrated using amazing photographs selected from the Yohji Yamamoto archive, from the likes of Nick Knight and Paolo Roversi, this is an invaluable resource for anyone with an interest in fashion and design.
