More quotes by Yohji Yamamoto
My role in all of this is very simple. I make clothing like armor. My clothing protects you from unwelcome eyes.
Yohji Yamamoto
I was on a Japanese designers' pedestal - considered a maestro. My design was getting closer to a couturier's work, and I felt like I was missing something.
Yohji Yamamoto
A pair of brilliantly cut cotton trousers can be more beautiful than a gorgeous silk gown.

Black is modest and arrogant at the same time.
Yohji Yamamoto
Fashion sighs after trends. I want timeless elegance. Fashion has no time. I do. I say: Hello Lady, how can I help you? Fashion has no time to even ask such a question, because it is constantly concerned with finding out: What will come next? It is more about helping women to suffer less, to attain more freedom and independence.
Yohji Yamamoto

Yohji Yamamoto
Colour disturbs people. I am confident in black, not in light. This dark side of life is attractive to me forever and from the beginning. I am a lazy designer when it comes to colour.
Yohji Yamamoto
Start copying what you love. Copy copy copy copy. At the end of the copy you will find your self.
Yohji Yamamoto
I have no imagination about holidays, vacations, or retiring life. I can't imagine about those things.
Yohji Yamamoto
A beautiful flower does not exist. There's only a moment when a flower looks beautiful.
Yohji Yamamoto
I only see the faults, flaws, the imperfections. That attracts me.
Yohji Yamamoto
I think perfection is ugly. Somewhere in the things humans make, I want to see scars, failure, disorder, distortion.
Yohji Yamamoto
People have started wasting fashion
