Despite all the de rigueur - and amazing as ever - black, it was the pair of twin army green aviator suits that stuck out. An homage to the very French reverence for the romance of aviation (Saint Exupery! Romain Gary!) or just a striking departure from the rest? The same can be said, for a crinkled grey henley tunic with moccasins and a necklace of tennis ball size paper pearls (pebble size black pearls came soon thereafter). Yet again there was flou sweeping the floor, here from the sleeves of a cropped navy jacket over a sailor's body suit and sheer neon red skirt, or a purple shawl twisted on bare shoulders beneath a green-grey two-piece utility suit. Yamamoto has earned the cred to do just about anything, except for platinum blonde toupees, in an otherwise lovely, classic collection.
