With full disclosure I have to say up front that I'm a Y-3 groupie.
Yohji Yamamoto's collection for Adidas is always just so f*cking cool. Even if there are pieces that look like it just escaped from Bellevue Mental Facility (see 2nd image insert), I don't judge the clothing, I just think that I'm not good enough to wear Yohji's creation. I'm so sorry. Please forgive me for not having model proportions and having to take into account my safety on public transportation.
This fall, master Yohji wants us to play with proportions. I've always loved toying with short versus long or baggy versus tight. In order to take on this new challenge for fall, I will need to start looking at my closet with a keen eye to see what I can work with. I'll just need to pick up a pair of parachute pants or shorts for my next trip to Baghdad.
YES
Playing with proportions can help you hide your imperfections. I'm a fan of wearing a short tight jacket over a long untucked shirt with tapered pants (see picture 1).
NO
These looks are not country club, ski lodge or shooting range approved. Not really sure where you'd wear this parachute short comb in real life.
MAYBE
You're a straight up and down kind of person and there's no room proportion. You're missing out.
