着物

I often walk these steps and I realise that they make me think of
breaking their geometry and trying to be in harmony with them at the
same time. I could say that I dressed the way I dressed only because
of them. Sometimes I go with something minimal, pure lines and
androgynous look and other times I turn to excessive drapery and
femininity, but never being able to tune in with them. Finally, one
Sunday in Urska's boxes filled with textiles I found this forgotten
piece waiting to become a shirt.

Suddenly, I remembered Yamamoto's 1994.-1995. Autumn/Winter collection
which was inspired by kimono. Oh yes, I want my kimono. To use
japanese vizual heritage and to wrap this right shade of grey with
some black. It immediatelly made me think about harmony and steps,
that I said loudly: "Urska, I must go on these steps.  Call Erik".
