The early Japanese collections inspired a new generation of Western
designers. The now commonplace use of all black, the deconstructed look and

and Yohji Yamamoto. Dutch designers Viktor and Rolf took the black theme one
step further in their Paris collection this year by painting their models a
shimmering ebony.
