Here are probably my favorite two looks from SS16 Miyake (Menswear line)

I love how a lot of Miyake's stuff becomes photographed. Not just campaigns, but runway shots and casual pictures. There's an extreme temporality to it... a balloon of energy pulled into shape for one instant.

Almost all the women i've met who work in fashion wear pleats please. I think it's because the clothes are very durable, easy to wear, low maintenance; they have designer kudos but are not trendy (other than baobao few miyake lines seem to receive attention from the mainstream fashion media lately); and, of course, they are dangerously cheap and plentiful second hand. Homme plissé on the other hand is scarce.

terrible picture, but here's two issey madame tea's i managed to tie together and make look like a coherent dress. it is basically a long pleated sheet of fabric with a hole in it. the madame tea is probably my favorite piece of clothing at the moment but i don't think i could ever pull one off successfully as man.
