Issey Miyake PLEATS PLEASE ISSEY MIYAKE AUTUMN WI ... 2026

About

The latest campaign for Pleats Please Issey Miyake offers a masterclass in editorial minimalism, stripping away the extraneous to focus entirely on the architectural integrity of the brand’s iconic textiles. Captured by photographer Marc Hibbert, the series leans into a disciplined aesthetic where the human form becomes a canvas for movement and color-blocking. By utilizing a restrained, neutral studio backdrop, the imagery allows the signature fine vertical pleating of the Autumn collection to take center stage. Under the discerning eye of fashion editor and stylist Kanako B Koga, the layering of vibrant lemon, cobalt, and deep emerald tones creates a rhythmic visual language that emphasizes the fluid, permanent pleats synonymous with the label. The styling is intentionally understated, pairing sophisticated, floor-length silhouettes and voluminous wide-leg trousers with casual footwear, reinforcing the line's balance between high-concept luxury fashion and everyday wearability. Hair stylist Tetsuya Yamakata provides a clean, varied approach to grooming that mirrors the crisp precision of the clothes, while set designer Haruka Kogure ensures the environment remains perfectly focused. Utilizing a mix of natural light and studio strobe, the campaign reads as a celebration of tactile geometry and contemporary craft, showcasing an effortless fusion of structured composition and soft, rhythmic motion that defines the timeless appeal of Issey Miyake.
