132 5. ISSEY MIYAKE

Dedicated to avant-garde construction and sustainable design, 132 5. ISSEY MIYAKE is a research arm of the Japanese label created in 2010. The numeric code in the line’s name reflects a geometric design feature that allows single pieces of cloth to move swiftly between their second and third dimensional forms, taking inspiration from computer science and mathematical sculptures. Fine craftsmanship meets responsible innovation in collections that highlight time-honored dyeing techniques and fabrics processed from discarded plastic. Slouchy pants and sweaters offer compelling interpretations of wardrobe staples, while statement bags sport metallic foil accents that resemble origami. A paragon of technical finesse, 132 5. ISSEY MIYAKE makes wearable art.
