The KURA gallery of ISSEY MIYAKE KYOTO presents KURA Exhibition “MONTAGE - Blink & Baked Stretch.”

“MONTAGE - Blink & Baked Stretch”

ISSEY MIYAKE 's autumn/winter 2019 season theme is “Chain of Inspiration.” An accidental flash of inspiration led to the next one, and while enjoying the adventures of repeated inspiration, I challenged the new possibilities of “a piece of cloth”.
In this exhibition, we will focus on the colorful pattern “MONTAGE” series that was born in it, and you will see clothes expressed with two types of techniques, new materials “Blink” and “Baked Stretch”. In addition, we will exhibit the tools used by the craftsmen for each textile made at the factory in Kyoto, and introduce a part of the manufacturing process.
