Yohji Yamamoto: Notebook on Cities and Clothes

Notebook on Cities & Clothes (1989) Notebook on Cities & Clothes is a Wim Wenders-directed portrait of Yohji Yamamoto, reflecting on the cities and people that inspire his work as the designer prepares for a presentation of his collection in Paris. A particularly notable scene is one in which the director observes Yamamoto rifling through old photographs, the designer noting how he is enchanted by the cut of Jean-Paul Sartre’s lapels in a snapshot by Henri Cartier-Bresson.
