I have to say I find this a little messy I adore the two grey dresses and that suit in the picture before those, but other than that I haven't spotted much here that I love. The knitted shoes are funny, but quite hideous

Thanks for posting Psylocke! I know, I'm a little surprised. Not at all the breathtaking poetic work we expect from him ( no offense to either but it looks more like Limi...not in a good way )
That said, that dress with the fanlike pleated collar is a feast on the eyes....

Ugh!

those cubic dresses are really fantastically done. not sure how what to think as a whole? i feel it's a bit hit and miss generally which is very odd to say about a yohji collection. i especially was befuddled by the suits with the stove-pipe cuts. they look a bit strange even amidst the suprising flourescent colours.

can't help but think, rei kawakubo styled models? lol.

This was, a lot of ideas, too many.

I think this collection had a messy beginning and messy end, with some lovely pieces in the middle. I can't say I love the styling.

 

[Not Plain Jane]

I love pretty much all the black looks, but the bright teal/orange pieces (which look grey here but not at Style.com) and those knit tube skirt looks don't appeal to me at all.

This showing doesn't have the brilliant coherence of last Spring's collection.

Those origami-looking dresses are totally cute though!

I'm happy this season.

I wasn't expecting such cold reactions. i overall love this. I could really do without the bell bottom pants but the rest (maybe minus the colored pieces) is amazing. the detailing is crazy. the pleats are exquisite and i'd kill for each one of the black dresses.

It's really more like his daughter's collection, sad this season.

 

[vandekamp]

I think it's OK. It's not awful by any means but it's disappointing.

 

[iluvjeisa]

It is strangely girlish. I do love the grey outfits and the long bellbottoms.

I wish people would stop posting these Nowfashion photos, they are time after time incredibly bad. it can't take more then an hour or two before better ones show up, can we not wait? for example, here: http://www.style.com/fashionshows/review/F2013RTW-YJIYMOTO

I think its a fantastic collection, I'm surprised by the reactions but then again it'll be a strange day when I agree with most here.

The beauty of this board is the sense of immediacy and urge to discuss (after most people watch the livestreams). HQ pictures usually follow as soon as they become available, so I'm not sure what your beef is. I appreciate anyone who takes the time and effort to post full collections.

This collection is definitely a lot to absorb, but I still see more good than bad pieces.

oh I love this collection! It's cool him going more girly in way, its a nice unexpected twist to his work. I would have though cut out the bright coloured pieces, a bit garish for my taste.
