The presence of HOMME PLISSÉ ISSEY MIYAKE at the upcoming Pitti Uomo in June fills us with pride and excitement. We have long hoped to associate the name of the great Japanese brand with our event, and today we are finally able to share a long-awaited announcement: HOMME PLISSÉ ISSEY MIYAKE will be the Guest of Honor at Pitti Uomo 108. This is our way of recognizing and celebrating the quality, creativity and originality of the brand, its success on a global scale – and, at the same time, highlighting the brand’s current creative direction, which has successfully reinterpreted the quiet, elegant magic of its founder: one of the designers, one of the artists, who marked the history of fashion in the twentieth century. I don’t dare to give comments as I was a fashion critic, but I can’t help but be struck by the blend of elegance, functionality, innovative use of color and materials, artistic flair and conceptual lightness that define HOMME PLISSÉ ISSEY MIYAKE’s work. It’s a vision that both honors and revitalizes such a powerful and distinctive legacy. For this show, Florence is, as always, ready to offer an evocative and unforgettable setting.
