After talking about my research to my teacher, Ms Selena. She suggested a designer to me. His name is Issey Miyake. A Japanese fashion designer born in Hiroshima, Japan in April 1938. Miyake had an aspiration of being a fashion designer .
In 1959 he enrolled in a graphic arts course at Tokyo’s famous Tama Art University.
In 1965 – he moved to Paris to fulfil his dream. Issey Miyake portrait Miyake’s first fashion show in Paris in 1973 was a hit and by ’79, he had set up an arm of his design house in France. Following his graduation he worked for Guy Laroche and then Givenchy. Miyake opened the Miyake Design Studio (MDS) in 1970 and the following year he opened Miyake International Inc. and showed his first collection both in Tokyo and New York. By the end of the decade he had a design company in France and the early eighties saw him do the same in the United States. The major influence on Miyake’s early collections it is said was traditional Japanese folkwear and his use of pleats. A Miyake trademark is the innovative use of both traditional and synthetic fabrics.
Sketches from Miyake
Miyake's designs and fashion styles interest me because it reminds me of anatomy. On the second picture above: Bones is what i thought of with it's edgy stiff look, it reminds me of how bones decompose and it's still beautiful. The third and forth picture: I really like the cutting and outline of it. How flowly and graceful it is. And the last one, he used pleats for a tradition japanese wear. It reminds me of the human skin with it's nude pastel pink colour and how it's oversized. As AOI is human ingenuity, i want to help people to express how they feel through fashion. After studying each collection, I noticed how there is a constant flow and that is something i like about his style. By using the same concept with simply too many styles. Now, i am inspired and i want to find out and study other designers design how they design and why did they design the way they did.
