“Yohji Yamamoto” 2010’s sheer cotton ribbed long dress

No accessories included.

From Yohji Yamamoto, whose unique aesthetic based on black and pursuit of the space created between the body and clothing have defined their style, we present a standout piece of layered design that makes use of its see-through effect.

Made with a mesh-like knit that features fine vertical ribbing in 100% cotton, this long dress develops subtle variations in color and translucency depending on how the light falls, offering a quiet presence all its own.

The sleeveless design covers the shoulders, and a vertically elongated silhouette with added ease layers in harmony to create a form that falls naturally without overly emphasizing the body’s lines. Although its structure is simple, the knit’s delicate texture and the contour that extends long help convey a Yohji Yamamoto-like sense of space and understated poise.

The neckline is a gentle round neck; it is not cut too deeply, so while it shows overlap with an inner layer, the overall impression remains neat and refined. Because the material is translucent, another of this item’s appeals is that you can change its expression depending on the color and texture of the inner garment you pair with it.

The hem is not finished uniformly; it is irregular, with slightly different lengths on the left and right. As you walk, the knit gently sways, creating quiet movement. Rather than adding decoration, individuality is expressed through the drape of the material and the subtle mismatch of the silhouette, making it a design that can be incorporated naturally into everyday life.

Considering the X13 product code shown in the quality label, size 2 indicated by numerals, the sans-serif laundry symbols, and the “MADE IN CHINA” marking, it is likely a product from around 2013 to 2014.

Of course, it can be worn as a dress in its own right. It can also be styled like a long tunic by layering it over shirts or lightweight tops, allowing you to adjust the impression according to the season and styling. This is especially recommended for those who favor black garments but want to incorporate a material feel and silhouette that differ from a standard one-piece dress.

For styling, layer a white shirt or a lightweight long-sleeve top, and pair wide trousers with long boots to achieve a crisp, mode-inspired look characteristic of Yohji Yamamoto. When worn as a dress, simply pairing it with a simple inner layer and dress shoes is enough to create a strong presence, letting you enjoy an understated strength in your outfit regardless of gender.

We look forward to welcoming you to this opportunity.
