S/S 1996 ISSEY MIYAKE
Sleeveless pleated dress.
Pleated polyester. Designed by Issey Miyake.

 

Size S; Shoulder to shoulder 19" (48 cm), bust 42" (107 cm), waist 42" (107 cm), hips 43" (109 cm), length 53.5" (~136 cm)

 

Fuchsia and grey polyester sleeveless and high-neck dress from one of Issey Miyake’s most iconic collections. Three variations of dress were featured in the collection. 

 

"Traditionally pleats are made before a garment is cut and sewn. Miyake reversed that process, creating pleated garments from single lengths of polyester sized two to three times larger than their final form (to account for heat shrinkage). The designer then folded the garments as if for storage; only then were they wrapped in paper and put through a machine that forms permanent pleats using heat and pressure.“  - Laird Borrelli-Persson, Vogue
