When I think of Issey Miyake I think of summer down at Lorne. Drinking rocket fuel on the foreshore. Nicotine, sweat, salt and L’eau D’Issey moisturising my hands. It wasn’t until I read this New York Post article (thanks Sue) that I found out that he’s a Hiroshima survivor. Have a read.
His clothes almost incorporate an atomic explosion of colour, texture and light and turn his horrific experience into a lesson of peace and harmony. The way the fabrics sit juxtaposed but perfectly in sync. And what makes me fall in love with Issey more, his is 80′s Pleats Please branding, posters and packaging. Serve me some sushi!

Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and everything. Nevertheless imagine if you added some great pictures or videos to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this site could certainly be one of the best in its field. Amazing blog!
