Our Point of View

A study in material contrast, this top from me Issey Miyake layers the label's signature cauliflower-knit construction against a fluid, horizontally striped woven skirt panel. The smocked empire waist draws the two distinct fabrics into a single fluid silhouette, while the polo collar and button placket lend a considered, sportswear-inflected polish. Designed to wear as effortlessly as it reads, it embodies the brand's commitment to tactile innovation within an everyday form.
