Dress


People and Brands:
Designer: Yohji Yamamoto

born 1943

Medium: Silk
Date: Fall 2007
Country: Japan
Credit: Museum purchase
The “YY” logo that Yohji Yamamoto debuted with his fall 2007 runway collection (seen on this dress) is remarkably similar to the well-known Louis Vuitton logo. While Yamomoto’s logo did not cause confusion among consumers, it did flirt with trademark infringement.
