The dress showcases the distinctive combination of graphic print, architectural simplicity, and movement that has made Pleats Please an enduring part of the Issey Miyake Archive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dress is cut in a streamlined, fitted silhouette with short cap sleeves and a high mandarin collar. A small vertical opening at the center neckline is secured with a concealed hook-and-eye closure, creating a subtle keyhole effect. The body is covered in finely textured accordion pleating, allowing the dress to follow the contours of the body while maintaining the characteristic flexibility of Pleats Please. The vibrant print features elaborate floral, botanical, and fantastical motifs in turquoise, orange, yellow, red, white, and green against a black ground. The placement of the large, symmetrical motifs across the bodice and skirt gives the dress an almost tapestry-like quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePleats Please was introduced as an independent brand for Spring\/Summer 1994, evolving from Issey Miyake's experiments with pleating that began in 1988. The house's distinctive process involves constructing the garment before pleating it, rather than pleating the fabric first, creating garments that are lightweight, adaptable to movement, and capable of producing a uniquely sculptural silhouette. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Printed Pleats Please pieces from the 1990s are particularly compelling within the Archive; the Kyoto Costume Institute holds printed Pleats Please dresses from Spring\/Summer 1997, while the Metropolitan Museum of Art also documents printed Pleats Please dresses from the mid-to-late 1990s. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA striking Archive piece that captures Issey Miyake's innovative approach to pleating while bringing an exuberant, highly graphic textile into the collection.
