ISSEY MIYAKE BLACK DRESS WITH RAW EDGES AND OFF SHOULDER SLEEVES 2000

Sale price$1,650.00

Resurrection is pleased to present an Issey Miyake black dress from 2000, a refined study in raw construction, fluidity, and quiet deconstruction.

Executed in a lightweight black fabric with a soft, matte finish, the dress falls in a long, columnar silhouette that gently skims the body. The minimal structure allows the material to move freely, embodying Miyake’s enduring focus on ease, wearability, and the relationship between fabric and form.

The neckline is subtly sculpted with a shallow split at center front, creating a restrained point of tension within the otherwise pared-back design. Delicate shoulder straps contrast with the off-shoulder sleeves, which drape loosely along the upper arms, introducing an understated asymmetry and softness to the composition.

Raw, exposed seams trace the construction throughout the garment, lending a sense of intentional incompletion—a hallmark of Miyake’s experimental approach during this period. These unfinished edges quietly disrupt the clean lines, adding texture and depth without overpowering the silhouette.

From the back, the dress reveals a more architectural sensibility, with visible seam work and a gently structured bodice that transitions into a fluid skirt. The interplay between precision and imperfection creates a piece that feels both grounded and ethereal.

A nuanced exploration of restraint and construction, this dress reflects Issey Miyake’s ability to elevate simplicity through technique, offering a timeless yet conceptually rich garment.
