Description
Y’s Yohji Yamamoto Linen Ribbed Cardigan
Yohji Yamamoto’s Y’s line has long served as the designer’s most distilled expression of everyday clothing—pieces that carry the philosophy of his runway work while remaining deeply wearable. Rather than focusing on overt conceptual gestures, Y’s garments often explore texture, proportion, and movement, allowing fabric and silhouette to create quiet drama.
This ribbed cardigan reflects that sensibility. Constructed from 100% linen, the garment uses a heavy vertical rib knit that creates natural structure while maintaining the breathable irregular texture characteristic of linen yarn. The open-front silhouette drapes organically around the body, while the sculptural shawl-like collar and elongated sleeves introduce the relaxed, slightly architectural proportions often associated with Yohji Yamamoto’s knitwear. Produced in Japan and bearing a Y’s label, the piece captures the understated elegance that defines the brand’s approach to everyday garments.
