Milan, 11 April 2024 – In the new chapter of 10·Corso·Como, according to Tiziana Fausti’s vision, the Gallery exhibition space continues its programming dedicated to fashion culture with a special project of the designer who provoked and inspired a distinctive aesthetics and imagery: Yohji Yamamoto. Known as the poet of black, since the beginning of his career, Yamamoto’s work has been recognized for challenging the conventions of fashion. His collections have redefined the idea of beauty, subverting stereotypes in pursuit of a new geography of the body and a universal silhouette.

Organized by 10·Corso·Como and Yohji Yamamoto, the project curated by Alessio de′ Navasques – curator and professor of Fashion Archives at Sapienza University of Rome – gathers a dialogue between iconic pieces from the runway, recent and future collections, in an ascending and immersive climax. From May 16 to July 31, 2024 in the spaces of the Gallery, garments will be the protagonists in a flow where every shape, cut and geometry transmits an idea of the future and beyond time.

The brightness of 10·Corso·Como’s renovated gallery – returned to its essence as an industrial space- evokes a pure and linear layout to restore an infinite and universal, mysterious beauty. In a path conceived as a single installation, Yohji Yamamoto’s message to Milan and Italy as a place of creativity par excellence is clear. “I want to draw time” he had stated in the idea of continuity between past and present, which he has shared throughout his career. The exhibition itinerary examines the body of work of the designer who made poetry of structured, yet ethereal, cut and reassembled pieces – where he penetrates the space of our thoughts, our emotions – his unmistakable signature.

A statement on the universal meaning of form through the absolute colors white, black and red: clothes become words in a literature of the relationship between body and space. For the designer, it is not a body objectified by signs and codes of gender recognition, but it is a body that acts on the dress and transforms it: a radical fashion that enhances the interiority of the wearer.
