Rebirth of Cool

One of my favorite fashion ads ever. This is Yohji Yamamoto™s Fall 1988 with model Susie Bick.I lost the image during my great computer crash of 2010 after stupidly not saving it on my external drive.   I came across it again via the Yamamotoism Tumblr and almost let out a mini scream.  You know where it is right now…

Even in 2010, this ad is still stylish and classic.

And I’m sure it will be classic and stylish in 2020.

    I totally agree! I think it just captures the essence of Yohji's clothes so well

    I totally agree. I know those boots are years and years old now, but I would love to find them somehow.
