This isn't too busy of a subforum, is it?
i didn't enjoy most of it either.. and i thought there was not much stuff about Yohji at all too, but the little that they did show, was quite nice...

berlinrocks try your public library ;-) i get almost everything from there, before buying at least...

Anyone ever see this movie ?
I guess ... Coz it seems it has been released in vhs in the mid 1990s and on dvd in the 2000s.

anyone has a youtube-whetever link ?
I have it on DVD & I've watched it a few times. I loved it. It really isn't a documentary per se... more like a piece of art by an artist admiring another artist. There's are also extras where Wenders discusses his approach to making the film, some deleted scenes, etc.

Here's the thread where MulletProof posted screencaps from the DVD. Just scroll down a bit & you'll see it.

here is a cdg sack dress. it has an asymmetrical shape, unfinished fabric at the shoulders, and little pockets of extra fabric at a couple of the seams. the tag with the date was cut off, but from the style it looks 80s. the store i got it from had a bunch of other 80s cdg pieces, but they weren't as interesting.

Hi guys,

I have a question. Has anyone here got a clear image of the iconic Yohji image of the black silhouette with the red tulle bustle? I mean, has a link to one?..

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
