I still have a Miyake dress I purchased in a consignment store in the 1990s & it still looks good today. It's timeless. That was a great video. Would have loved to see his Tokyo exhibit wished it travelled abroad to other cities. He's one of a kind.
I remember discovering Issey Miyake in 1982 when American high fashion stores started to carry his line. Wilkes Bashford was the first to carry Miyake in SF, than the following year Macy’s started to carry Miyake. Wilkes window display was a neru collar men’s shirt with the side slit pocket opening. The pants had this long material of the same pants that was twisted around the waist twice. I remember wanting to buy this inside out khaki pants and told a friend to watch them and when I came back 15 mins later, my friend was wondering around and not watching the pants and someone picked up and I couldn’t find. So I ended up buying this other pair that opened up and had a inverted pleat in the center of the leg. Thi is was 82/83 and I was only 18/19 years old. In 1985, I did find a pair of Miyake men’s pants for like $7. and had a minor rip where the draw string hole was and a easy fix. They were like $160. pants that probably some rich guy didn’t have time to fix or return at a shop and donated. I was so thrilled finding em.
I had been wanting to buy a Pleats Please dress for some time now. I admired the pianist Mitsuko Uchida wearing his designs while performing here in 2019. I kept looking at dresses for years and then finally last Thursday I purchased the maxi dress. I ordered it from England and I was nervous about it being the correct size and it getting here (USA) properly. It arrived today...it was such a bittersweet feeling, opening the package, having read this morning that he had passed away. Of course the dress is so beautiful and elegant. Rest in Peace, Mr. Miyake. He not only persevered after experiencing traumatic events early in life but blossomed and insisted on being positive and creating beauty and hope.
Always love Issey MIyake’s works, i first noticed his works way back when I was studying graphic design in ‘93, his pleats please materials and dresses were just astonishing back then and now almost 30 years later its still relevant. The man deserves a Nobel prize in Fashion Design if there is one!
More to come! We are about to release 2 more Renegades. Rick Owens, and McQueen ! I hope you have subscribed and clicked the notification bell so you will know when they are up. Thanks for your kind feedback !
Some footage is very valuable. His experience of war was new information as he dose not talk much about himself. His design has urban sophistication and geometric elements, but at the same time it feels gentle. In addition, he is also very handsome himself.
This video is technically pretty janky (weird picture and audio cuts, music is mixed way too loud, etc) but the information is amazing. Issey Miyake was truly a genius! There's so much fluidity and joy in his work, you can't help but smile when viewing his shows.
I was hoping to see more of his earlier work. He is more than just pleated polyester. Which is nice, but, looking at his body of work, is commercial. His work from the early 80's was for me, magic, sculpture, walking art. He was very creative with cut, shape, texture, details, and of course fabric. Sometimes using materials that was not considered appropriate for fashion.

L’Odyssey, like A Space Odyssey. You don’t pronounce the ‘ in french. Not L’eau De Yssey. Otherwise this doco is excellent, you’d think its all bs the movement and functionality aspects of his work but it isn’t, trust me it is not. Every pieces of clothing I have from him, 1 pair of pants and 3 or 4 shirts are soo comfortable, truly a joy to wear. Only downside is its not for cold weather at all.
Please please, can doc makers have narrators who can pronounce their subjects’ names correctly and fluidly, though? Shouldn’t conveying accurate pronunciation to the viewer be as important as conveying the designer’s background and vision? This “izzy mee-YACKee ”is painful to the ear.
i love this docu, but im not liking the mundane voice of narrator. Her monotone lifeless voice did not bring justice to the elegance of issey miyake. My ears bleed so i played on silent mode and read the closed captions instead.
RIP Issey Miyake. You have revolutionalized fashion.

I wished some of the footages were remastered digitally. There were sections that were in very poor quality.
You can only do with what material was recorded in the old days. We are working with Issey Miyake company on an expanded official film.
hes very attractive too
The one designer that makes clothes that I can fit into and they are so sick too

Throughout the video you hear ppl pronouncing his name “EE-say Me-yah-kay” but you still say “izzy me-ya-key”
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for the video and the effort in research.
Please work on your audio mix.
Thank you, I will
The death of elegance; the rise of the homeless 'thrift store' look. Oh well, it sells...

🥺🪻🪻🪻
I love this but I can't stand how the narrator is just butchering the names of so many people.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇧🇷
the music is too loud, its overbearing.
Are you Home Alone again ? Get a life buddy !
So... what is so special about it.
Please please, can doc makers have narrators who can pronounce their subjects’ names correctly and fluidly, though? Shouldn’t conveying accurate pronunciation to the viewer be as important as conveying the designer’s background and vision? This “izzy mee-YACKee ”is painful to the ear.
She doesn't do much better with the French pronunciations.
Dreadful,😔..I Know .
Didn't see Naomi here..mb she's too old now...
Almond milk in perfume? Come on...at least be honest and say it was an accord of almond milk. Hehe.
Same here😊 I thought What nonsense 😔
never heard of him / her
He'd never heard of you either
@@Fashionindustrybroadcast .....LOL.....the BEST shade.....is NO shade....
i love this docu, but im not liking the mundane voice of narrator. Her monotone lifeless voice did not bring justice to the elegance of issey miyake. My ears bleed so i played on silent mode and read the closed captions instead.
