Yoshiki Unveils Full Runway Show of MAISON YOSHIKI PARIS From Milan Fashion Week Debut
Japanese music legend YOSHIKI -- leader of X Japan and The Last Rockstars – will perform the U.S. national anthem at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles on Tuesday, April 16 at 7:00pm as part of "Hello Kitty Night." Just before the Dodgers play against the Washington Nationals, YOSHIKI will perform a live piano rendition of “The Star Spangled Banner,” and Hello Kitty will make a special appearance for the ceremonial first pitch. Dodger Stadium is the home of the Los Angeles Dodgers' star players Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
Tickets for the Dodger Stadium special event can be purchased via the official Los Angeles Dodgers website: https://www.mlb.com/dodgers/tickets/single-game-tickets.
Earlier this year, it was announced that YOSHIKI will create the global theme song for Hello Kitty's 50th Anniversary celebration, which will span numerous events all year long. Created in 1974, Hello Kitty is the world's most famous character with over 50,000 branded products sold across 130 countries.
YOSHIKI and Hello Kitty’s friendship has been long lasting, starting with the release of "yoshikitty" and its appearance at YOSHIKI’s concerts in Japan. Commemorating Hello Kitty’s 50th anniversary in 2024, YOSHIKI will celebrate their friendship by composing a song.

"At MAISON YOSHIKI PARIS, modern tailoring and hard edged details make for perfect harmony. …glamour and drama coexisted well in this solid debut."
--VOGUE
“Not surprisingly, his mostly black clothing — sleek, low-rise trousers; coats and fitted jackets with faux-fur trims; satin or jersey dresses sliced open over the body or sprouting futuristic wings — have a performance quality. Maison Yoshiki’s clothes are all made in Europe and owe something to the Mugler style. For the finale, Yoshiki played two pieces on a clear acrylic piano, including the aria “Nessun dorma” from Puccini’s “Turandot.” He seemed utterly chill about his ability to be a designer, which is perhaps not surprising at all.” – New York Magazine, THE CUT
“a rock ‘n’ roll collection befitting the stage and daring consumers, with crop tops and flared, low-rise pants nodding to the early 2000s, crafted from Italy- and France-sourced precious fabrics including silk, mousselines, lightweight wool and the occasional faux fur accents in sync with the loud aesthetics core to Yoshiki’s creativity.” -- WWD
