An Ambitious Creation Inspired by ISSEY MIYAKE's "Pleated Garments"
Yves Béhar, Ross Lovegrove, Naoto Fukasawa, Tokujin Yoshioka, Harri Koskinen, Shunchu Yamanaka, Satoshi Wada—Jasper Morrison's name is newly etched among this stellar lineup of designers active at the forefront of the global stage.
The new "PLEASE" series is inspired by the colorful and unique pleated garments born from the ISSEY MIYAKE collection. The concept of these original clothes is carried on in the "PLEATS PLEASE ISSEY MIYAKE" products that blend into people's daily lives, loved worldwide.
