In 2005 and 2006 Yohji Yamamoto held a 3-part exhibition in Florence (Correspondences), Paris (Juste des vêtements) and Antwerp (Dream Shop). Here's what provant.be said about it:
Masao Nihei, a close co-worker of Yohji Yamamoto, elaborated the scenography and the artistic concept for the exhibition rooms in Florence, Paris and Antwerp. A new concept was devised for each location, corresponding to the individuality of the space and the philosophy of the museum. The three exhibitions were thought out with a unique light design, using neon lights in different intensities to focus on the sculptural qualities of Yamamoto's clothes. In Florence the clothes were confronted with the baroque interior and the art collection of Palazzo Pitti; Paris displayed clothes for the first time outside the museum showcases and for the MoMu (Mode Museum) in Antwerp a Dream Shop was designed.
The number one reason I feel sad for having missed the Antwerp exhibition is that visitors could actually try on about 20 garments in special fitting rooms ...
... but at least I can live vicariously through these photos.
P.S. I'm going to launch my new blog about cities next week.
