Yohji Yamamoto 2018-19 Fall/Winter Collection.

This black wide-leg flare pants come from Yohji Yamamoto’s 2018-19 Autumn/Winter collection. The overall design sits between wide trousers, hakama pants, and skirt-pants, representing a classic Yohji Yamamoto approach: creating skirt-like volume through the structure of trousers.

The pants are made from Yohji Yamamoto’s long-used wrinkled wool gabardine fabric. The surface is not flat or plain black, but carries subtle wrinkles, a muted sheen, and natural fabric texture, allowing the black tone to show different depths under light. The key quality of this fabric is not only its texture, but also its drape and movement. When worn, the fabric opens and falls naturally with each step, creating soft yet weighty flowing lines.

The silhouette is high-waisted with a wide flared shape, gradually expanding from the waist downward. The leg width is extremely generous, giving the front view an appearance close to a long skirt or hakama, while still retaining the function of trousers. The vertical folds at the center and sides prevent the large black surface from looking flat, adding clear structure and elongating the lower-body proportion.

The appeal of this piece lies in its combination of formal elegance, genderless expression, and Yohji Yamamoto’s signature relaxed presence. Paired with a simple shirt, it can create a refined look close to black formal trousers or hakama pants. Styled with an oversized top, long coat, or tonal black pieces, it moves closer to the fluid silhouettes often seen in Yohji Yamamoto runway styling. This is not a regular pair of daily wide-leg pants, but a statement piece capable of defining the entire outfit.

Because of its strong volume, it works best with simple, grounded footwear such as chunky leather shoes, derby shoes, or boots. Wearing it with a shorter top or tucking the top into the waistband will emphasize the high waist and lengthen the lower body. Pairing it with a loose top creates a more complete Yohji-style black volume silhouette.

Overall, this is a highly recognizable Yohji Yamamoto wide-leg black trouser piece. It is ideal for those who appreciate black layering, generous silhouettes, hakama-inspired proportions, skirt-pants visuals, and a quiet avant-garde style. It can also serve as a core bottom piece within a Yohji Yamamoto wardrobe.

【TEXTILE】
・Made from the iconic textile (wool gabardine, commonly known as wrinkled gabardine) that has been used since the brand was founded. By applying a strong texture/wrinkle effect to the yarn during the sorting process, we create the unique texture and subtle sheen that have sustained the brand for over 40 years and are synonymous with Yohji Yamamoto, fabrics that are durable and wear-resistant/deep and silent Black/Beautiful gloss.

・The advantage of wool gabardine (GABA) is that the wool is densely woven to reduce the air in and out, giving the fabric excellent warmth retention. Precisely because of its high density, its surface has a beautiful, subtle luster, and it is also durable. It can be worn at any time in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and you can freely enjoy matching styles across seasons/series.

・The longer the use time, the more obvious the luster of wool becomes. It's neither too hard nor too soft, just the right amount of stiffness. This characteristic creates a beautiful drape, so pieces with longer hems and lengths will look more stylish and maximize the original texture of wool.
The fabric is a classic wool crinkle gabardine.
