Y-3 Show Report
The next to follow on with the mini-me, my child must look like me trend, is Yohji Yamamoto diffusion line Y-3. Shown together with the adult line in New York. The debut kids collection carried on the theme of previous Y-3 adult lines, sports wear mixed with the draped and oversized silhouettes of the mainline. Jumbo sports wear jackets worn as coats looked novel and sailor’s jackets were cute, a matt boiler suit, slash ski suit, in shell suit fabrics was flashy. It will be interesting to see how the line develops, already on the kids market there are a number of brands referencing Yamamoto’s signature oversized silhouettes, which is perfect for the durability that kids need in clothing.
