Yohji Yamamoto Frames and Glasses as the Most Avant-Garde Accessories

Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto is a real legend of haute-couture. Since the time of creation of his fashion house his accessories are a subject of a real hunt among fashionistas and collectors. What’s so special in Yamamoto’s eyewear, you may ask. 

The 80s became the real heyday of the Yamamoto fashion house when the designer brought his collections to the best catwalks in the world. And after working on costumes for films by Takeshi Kitano and Akira Kurosawa, the brand's success was phenomenal.

And What Are Things That Make Yamamoto Eyewear Unique?

Being a representative of the deconstructive art movement, Yohji Yamamoto preferred laconic black color for his frames and extraordinary design of frames. Even in frames of single color Yamamoto have shown that there are no limits for art so his pairs of glasses were created in different tones of black making them unique and gorgeous.

Lack of details in his glasses is greatly compensated by ergonomic and comfortable form with avant-garde single detail in each pair. And even the form of each frame and lenses is unique. Here, you cannot find boring patterns of circle or brick. If it is a Yamamoto’s masterpiece, be ready to see a circle partially inscribed in a square or even in octagon.
