TYPE-Ⅰ 007
This jacket is woven with striped fabric characterized by its special black color that cannot be achieved with conventional dyeing. The design features accordion pleats at the sides of the waist and other areas created using the Steam Stretch* technique that produces both beautiful lines and stretchiness when worn. This is an item from the “TYPE-I” project by A-POC ABLE ISSEY MIYAKE, which pursues the possibilities for clothing offered by this new color created through the use of Triporous™, a new material made from rice husks.
*The “Steam Stretch” technique shrinks cloth by applying hot steam in order to create unique stretch materials. Special threads shrunken with heat are woven with other threads, and then only the special thread parts shrink when the steam is applied. By only shrinking the intended parts of the piece of woven cloth, three-dimensional patterns and shapes are created and the garment is completed.
