Melting poem tale: an odyssey released from beyond isolation. The trembling of loose waveforms is abrupt and beautiful, like the Sirens of Greek mythology who lured sailors to their doom with their irresistibly enchanting voices. The moment a different beauty is born without separating the parts from the whole. Open-minded reasons that are neither concrete nor abstract, or both. Liberating the attributes of various things, spring into a world richly variegated in color. LOOK - YOHJI YAMAMOTO SS20

The No Future Jacket was worn by Yohji Yamamoto when he appeared to greet attendees at the end of the Yohji Yamamoto Femme SS20 Paris Collection show. Printed on the back with “NO FUTURE” combined with Yamamoto’s signature, this jacket has the same silhouette as Yamamoto’s own favorite jacket, nicknamed “Dr. JACKET.” Made from wool gabardine—a fabric that is synonymous with the Yohji Yamamoto brand—the jacket can be worn as a unisex item. The words “NO FUTURE” are intended as an alarm bell warning against end-of-the-world-heralding phenomena of natural disasters caused by global-scale weather changes that are growing increasingly more serious throughout the world. No Future holds the stark warning that we have no future, but it also includes a message from Yamamoto that we must not be passive but rather actively create our own future with our own hands amidst such unstable social conditions.
