Issey Miyake Yellow Organza Brown Striped Handkerchief Dress

Balance. Simple features. Precision. As much as Issey Miyake is known for his architectural wonders of fashion, his designs also speak volumes through calculated simplicity. This dress is done in a vibrant, sheer yellow organza with copper stripes throughout. The shoulder straps transition into a geometric neckline that provide and interesting framing of the décolletage.

From there, the dress splays out into a full trapeze silhouette. Due to the precise cut and drape of the organza, the stripes form an artistically optical chevron pattern. Playing off of the geometric neckline while working with the soft yet crisp volume of the organza, this dress finishes in a beautiful handkerchief hem just below the knee. Because of the visual interest of this dress, it is a perfect layering piece to wear with a simple bandeau, over a slip dress or paired with a trendy jean.
