Pleats Please Issey Miyake Women's

When it comes to Pleats Please Issey Miyake, there’s no bad press. Debuted in 1994 and as a capsule under the Issey Miyake mainline, the label celebrates the boundary-pushing garment folding technique, first researched in the ‘80s, when textile designer Makiko Minagawa heat-pressed a scarf. 

In the Pleats Please womenswear collection at END. you’ll find versatile pieces that remain in a forever wardrobe, echoing the brand’s concept that design is “not for philosophy, but for life”. Scroll for trousers and issey miyake pleated tops which utilise the innovative sewing method with directional origami-like folds and structured paneling, very aesthetically pleasing.

Three generations on, the Japanese brand continues to evolve its signature technique, where garments are first sewn and then pleated, transforming clothing into a sculptural-like amorphous style. 

Like all Issey Miyake womenswear clothing, plisse pieces lean upon Japanese minimalism and architecture, transforming fabric into a sculptural piece of art. Choose from monochrome to colourful candy tones. Free-flowing forms, no closures, no frills, just design for everyday life. Suiting any occasion to everyday wear, come on in, celebrate the joy of pleats in the Pleats Please Issey Miyake for women collection at END. 

The boundary-pushing technique brings simplicity and convenience to dressing, with one-of-a-kind stretchy plisse vests and shorts, universally flattering and adapting to each wearer's body, creating a unique silhouette. The best part? Fabric is lightweight, machine washable, static resistant (no lint roller required) and completely crease proof. Ironing is overrated anyway.
