Architectural multi-layer shirt dress from Yohji Yamamoto’s Spring/Summer 2020 collection. The outer layer is cut from crisp white cotton poplin with a voluminous A-line silhouette, elbow-length sleeves, and a pointed collar. Beneath the clean, minimalist exterior lies a complex internal structure: multiple layers of sheer silk and tulle, each hand-painted and embroidered with intricate motifs in black, green, silver, and muted gold. The interior surfaces are entirely covered in hand beadwork and sequins, creating a dimensional interplay between opacity and transparency as the garment moves.
