YOKE

About YOKE

YOKE is a Japanese label founded in Tokyo in 2018 by designer Norio Terada. It makes casual knitwear to wear at any time in a usual day, with gender-neutral designs and refined materials. For Fall/Winter 2026 the brand presents its first women's collection, BEYOND FORM, inspired by the organic forms of the artist Jean Arp. Soft lines, sculptural volumes and asymmetric details are designed to complement the female body. Rather than drawing a fixed boundary between menswear and womenswear, YOKE links the two through a gradual transition. The collection finds beauty in irregularity over strict symmetry, with softened structures and unexpected proportions that balance abstraction with wearability.
