More quotes by Yohji Yamamoto

Yohji Yamamoto
Fashion cannot make you sexy. Experience makes you sexy. Imagination makes people sexy. You have to train yourself, you have to study, and you have to live your life.
Yohji Yamamoto

Yohji Yamamoto
If you feel strongly about someone, go up to them. Pursue what you want in life. Why be shy about something like that?
Yohji Yamamoto
I always want to have a new challenge involved. I need to put myself to the test, and if I make mistakes, it doesn't matter. What matters to me, instead, is making my dreams come true and putting them on display.
Yohji Yamamoto
Just listen to the material. What is it going to say? Just wait. Probably the material will tell you something.
Yohji Yamamoto
Dirty, stained, withered, broken things seem beautiful to me.
Yohji Yamamoto
Clothing doesn’t lie, it shows everything.
