EXCERPT: YOHJI YAMAMOTO. MEN'S FALL 2024 - PARIS FASHION WEEK.
"...Yamamoto's Fall 2024 array, within it mastery of its aging imprint, maintains the draped tailored and the iconic Avant-garde looks, which has been the epitome of inspiration for so many designers. That, over the timeline of the early 2000s, when the worn, exposed stitching, fine wools and linen in its drapey, layered affair, reached a pinnacle in 2015, and has since declined. As the costs of becoming an aspiring fashion designer in a neo-inflated world are now embedded as a fact of life. So, in turn are the expenses of materials and production, which have priced out aspiration and unfortunately the multinational 'sportswear' conglomerates has been priced in, hence all the collaboration deals that have occured over the last Ten years. The individualist aspect of fashion design could be at the cusp of extinction.
