"    Photo: This Is My Dream  Arguably one of the world&amp;#039;s most respected fashion designers, Yohji Yamamoto allows a tiny glimmer of a glimpse into his inner sanctum in director Theo Stanley&amp;#039;s intimate short documentary titled This Is My Dream. While most documentaries clock in around the two hour mark, this brief, 30 minute flash comes as a refreshingly succinct take on the man behind one of sportswear&amp;#039;s most celebrated lines.  It&amp;#039;s actually less of a documentary and more an insight into Yamamoto&amp;#039;s current frame of mind, specifically in the months leading up to the showing of his Spring/Summer &amp;#039;10 show in New York. Thankfully (some might say miraculously), Stanley was able to capture the notoriously private mastermind in a ready-and-willing state of surprising openness. For 30 minutes he simply throws out pearl after pearl of wisdom.   The film is part of a large-scale celebration of the 10th anniversary of his collaboration with Adidas and includes some drool-worthy footage from collections past, including his seminal inaugural 1981 women&amp;#039;s collection. If there&amp;#039;s one thing we wish there&amp;#039;d been more of, it would be more of those vintage clips (but perhaps that&amp;#039;s for the two hour long version further down the line). The film is rich with scenes highlighting Yamamoto&amp;#039;s various temperaments. In one, we find him peering intensely at two models from behind a full-length mirror; in another we see him strumming enthusiastically on a guitar while singing an improvisational ode to New York. It is indeed an extraordinary treat to follow along as the camera captures the incredibly intimate moments of Yamamoto&amp;#039;s creative process. The film will become available for purchase on DVD at all Y-3 stores globally as well as on Y-3.com in the fall. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
