80s MINT ISSEY MIYAKE CREAM DRESS EXQUISITE WEARABLE ART EAST WEST FUSION BRIDAL

Description: DESCRIPTION VINTAGE 80s MINT CONDITION ISSEY MIYAKE CREAM DRESS EXQUISITE “WEARABLE ART’ FUSION of EAST and WEST SIZE: SMALL-MEDIUM From a vintage 80s collection, this spectacular dress from Issey Miyake, a Japanese designer known for his revolutionary haute couture sculptural garments. Miyake focused on making clothing—not fashion, and built a career on the premise that the body should determine the folds of the clothes, and not the reverse. This stunning dress is a fusion of East and West, based on the form of the traditional Japanese kimono, with long draping “sleeves” whose folds create "wearable art". While distinctly modern Japanese, with a turn of the sleeves, the richness of the folds creates a graceful Grecian inspired gown. This design exemplifies the genius of Miyake for producing the most beautiful effects with the simplest of means. Fabricated in 100% high quality cotton, this dress remains in mint condition. An exquisite expression of the form beneath, this dress is truly exceptional. Wear it for a special occasion dress or an evening at home, perfect for tasteful, low key wedding, or the opening of your own one woman show. No matter the event, you will be stunning, the center of attention. For those who have an eye for detail, beauty in precision and quality, this Issey Miyake design is perfect. Note, the other label “U Chicago” is from the now closed, iconic boutique Ultimo, arguably the most exclusive designer shopping in Chicago for decades.
