Mikimoto and Yohji Yamamoto are aligning their talents to create an unprecedented series of fine jewellery collections. Yohji Yamamoto, a magician of the couture fashion form, who in thirty-five years has decisively revolutionized the appearance of women, will apply his creative vision to Mikimoto, who, for 114 years has been the world's premier luxury pearl jeweller. Yohji Yamamoto and Mikimoto, though synonymous with masterpieces of Japanese culture, both enjoy worldwide renown.
The pearl is a symbol of feminine perfection, and, in the quintessential universe of fine jewellery, it stands alone. Its perfect form, the subtlety of its iridescence, its refinement singularly unique…the pearl radiates magnetic attraction. For these reasons, Yohji Yamamoto has decided to design a jewellery collection focused on the pearl. Mikimoto's incomparable reputation for designing, producing and selling the world's finest cultured pearl jewellery made it a perfect choice for Yohji Yamamoto.
This groundbreaking jewellery collection will be called Stormy Weather it is an artistic expression of nature's dramatic volatility on a stormy day. Concept, design and craftsmanship, like three verses of a song, harmonize to a single note, establishing the first line of fine jewellery conceived by a fashion designer whose primordial character is both unique and unifying.
Stormy Weather will be composed of three groups called Moon, Drops and Le Cri and will be launched globally in the Yohji Yamamoto and Mikimoto stores this November 2007.
