ISSEYMIYAKE

Issey Miyake

Since presenting its first collection in 1971, ISSEY MIYAKE has been designing and making clothing that explores the relationship — the ease and ma (the unfilled space) — between the wearer’s body and the fabric of the wear, which is founded upon the brand’s unwavering approach to the concept of a piece of cloth, thereby developing clothing that is universal and unbound by the Western vs. Eastern conventions of clothing design.

Collection design: Satoshi Kondo

Year of creation: 1970

Homme Plissé Issey Miyake

Launched in 2013, HOMME PLISSÉ ISSEY MIYAKE is founded on the technology of garment pleating that designs and makes everyday wear that is universal for the diversity of the wearers. The garments, being wrinkle-resistant, quick to dry, lightweight, and easy to wear, are designed as products for everyday life that adapt to each wearer’s body as they bring out individual personalities.
