LOVE these vintage kimono's. The colors and textures are enough to just hang on your wall- imagine what it would feel like to wander around in one of these both at home on a lazy morning or a loose aesthetic for the weekend over you jeans and tee, because hey, the word "kimono", literally means a "thing to wear". Worn wrapped around the body, always with the left side over the right and secured with a sash- which is always tied at the back, but I'm wondering if we can stretch tradition and wear it with a leather belt instead?
Tea ceremony anyone? Read more here

Being a dancer I always think it is exciting when choreography collides with fashion. The Last Magazine has teamed up with Benjamin Millepied and Y-3 to produce a short visual entitled The Third Wave. Energetic and fluid the Y-3 collection is showcased to it's full malleable potential, The Third Wave was choreographed by Benjamin Millepied, with music by Patrik Berger, and features Millepied, a principal dancer at the New York City Ballet, together with four young dancers, including Jessica Saund from American Ballet Theatre.
Watch The Third Wave below.
