“FORM −132 5. ISSEY MIYAKE creations”

The KURA gallery of ISSEY MIYAKE KYOTO presents KURA Exhibition “FORM −132 5. ISSEY MIYAKE creations.”

Model: Shuga Ohashi

「132 5. ISSEY MIYAKE」* was born in the autumn of 2010, based on future-oriented research and development.

This exhibition introduces “132 5. ISSEY MIYAKE” creativity and making process through images and videos. Photographer Kazumi Kurigami captured the beauty of the shapes, while the studio, DRAWING AND MANUAL, created the videos featuring garments rhythmically transforming from flat surfaces into three-dimensional forms.

Celebrating the 10th anniversary of the brand, the logo has been renewed to reflect that “132 5. ISSEY MIYAKE” is making clothes that are easy to care for and straightforward to wear. The appeal of the brand can be seen through the environmentally and resource-friendly materials used and the architectural silhouettes, which continue to evolve season over season.

*The brand name expresses how a single piece of cloth (1D) creates a 3D shape (3D), becomes flat (2D) when folded, and becomes a 5D existence that transcends time and dimensions when worn. It is filled with the desire to become.
