“I took the cheque, we went off to France on the hovercraft. It was very simple, there were three magazines that mattered: Vogue, Marie Claire, and Elle, they were the important magazines at the time. The art director at Marie Claire, Walter Rospert, said, ‘You’re wrong for us, but you’re right for Yohji Yamamoto. You have to go and see Marc Ascoli.’ I went and that’s when I met Marc, and at that point Marc just looked at the pictures and said. ‘You’ve got to shoot the entire campaign for us.’ Based on just six pictures. It was amazing.” - Max Vadukul, photos from Y’s Autumn/Winter 2000 catalogue
