A new book is being launched next month celebrating Issey Miyake’s Pleats Please collections. The concept of Pleats Please Issey Miyake is explored through a selection of texts and images, tracing its journey from inception, through material development, to its public reception. The explanation of its evolution also includes a section revealing the creation of the original thread as well as the pleating process. The collections, first launched in 1993, were made from single pieces of high-quality 100% polyester fabric. From tube dresses to cardigans, skirts, shirts, or elastic-waisted pants: the clothes emerge with permanent pleats. This industrial process allows both texture and form to be created at the same time, with vertical pleating used to create different effects and architectural shapes. The book will be available from 6 September nationwide, with an invitation-only launch party taking place in London ....
