Yohji Yamamoto Spring 2013 RTW
SHOW: Yohji Yamamoto, Spring 2013
Theme: Secret vixen
ACCESSORIES: Neutral lace-up sneakers and booties; feathery hats
OVERALL TAKEAWAY: Yamamoto is legendary for his androgynous minimalism, and this show was no exception.
Most of the looks were monochromatic: white on white, red on red, gray on grayer. But there were little surprises and exquisite tailoring in every piece, from a white coat with delicately puffed shoulders to a single strap anchoring a flowing black dress.
The accessories showed a side of whimsy, giving the clothing basics a much-needed kick. Many of the looks were paired with delicate hats made of light-colored feathers, but there was also a big chunky white necklace that wouldn't have looked out of place on Betty Rubble and a veiled cap that almost acted as a shroud.

And there were also the occasional bits of skin, including several bared midriffs poking out from under asymmetrical jackets.
Who ever said minimalism meant simplicity?
