The fashion designer passed away at 84
A few days ago, Issey Miyake passed away. He was a Japanese designer and creator of icons, some of which are unknown to most, despite being very popular. Beyond the invention of the one-piece tubular dress, A-POC, made by making fabric dance around the body through a combination of technology and creativity, Issey Miyake, in fact, created the turtleneck that was Steve Jobs’ trademark.

Among his creations are the unstructured pleated dresses, the A-POCs, which build figures soft and architectural at the same time, made with a single thread in a continuous-process machine. His creativity, however, did not stop at dresses. One of his greatest successes is the perfume L’Eau d’Issey, launched in the early 1990s and featuring a slim, essential bottle. Also, his line of watches featured the collaboration of several international designers. Finally, the architecture of its flagship stores is also famous, distinguished by their essential and rigorous design. IsseyMiyake.com
