本周在伦敦举行的大型前卫山本洋司不仅有一场展览，而且有三场展览。再加上这位日本设计师今年早些时候出版的一本神奇的传记，一家位于导管街的全新Y-3旗舰店紧随其后，这使得人们可以相当安全地推断，Yohji狂热已经很好地、真正地占领了这座城市。回顾主要分为三个部分，第五部分

Joining forces with scenographer, lighting designer, and long-time Yamamoto collaborator, Masao Nihei... (Photograph detailing the installation set-up process)

... The Wapping Project installation gives centre stage to the now legendary oversized white silk wedding dress from A/W 1998, turned on its head and suspended from the ceiling over a flooded pool in The Wapping Project's Boiler House. (Photograph detailing the installation set-up process)

Lit just above water level with a row of light bulbs, the experience - complete with ripples that disturb the water at 10 minute intervals... (Photograph detailing the installation set-up process)

Closer to town, photographic gallery Wapping Project Bankside has lent its large industrial space to an exhibition titled 'Yohji's Women'.

The show features a communion of image-led work dedicated to Yamamoto's love of unconventional women and his drive to create sexually androgynous clothes for them...

... featuring a roll call of photographers that includes Nick Knight, Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, Peter Lindbergh and Paolo Roversi, amongst others.

Over on Conduit Street, the first Y-3 flagship store sits across the road from the Yohji Yamamoto boutique.

Spread over 200 sq m, the two-floor space features clean lines and industrial materials to reflect a modern aesthetic.

The London store marks the 10 year Y-3 partnership between Yohji Yamamoto and adidas.

In store at the moment is the current S/S 2011 collection.

Y-3 Conduit Street will also stock the full range including menswear, womenswear, footwear, accessories and childrenswear.
