Miyake was born on April 22, 1938, in Hiroshima, Japan, where he witnessed the diminutive bombing in August 1945.[2] Every bit a child, he wanted to go a dancer. His interest in fashion started by studying his sister'south fashion magazines. He studied graphic design at the Tama Art University in Tokyo, graduating in 1964. He entered designs into mode competition at the Bunka Fashion Higher in Tokyo. However, he did not win a contest due to his lack of design-making or sewing skills. After graduation, he enrolled in the Chambre syndicale de la couture parisienne school in Paris and was an apprenticed to Guy Laroche as assistant designer. He also worked with Hubert de Givenchy, drawing 50 to 100 sketches daily.[3]

In 1969, he moved to New York, where he met artists like Christo and Robert Rauschenberg. He was enrolled in English classes at Columbia University and worked on Seventh Avenue for designer Geoffrey Beene.[3] Returning to Tokyo in 1970, he founded the Miyake Pattern Studio, a high-end producer of women'south fashion.

From a young age, Miyake respected creative person Isamu Noguchi, whose newness and sense of fun in his designs inspired Miyake. He was also inspired by fashion designer Madeleine Vionnet's use of geometric calculations and "a single piece of beautiful cloth."[4] In Paris, he visited several museums and he mentioned that he was influenced past sculptors such as Brancusi and Giacommetti.[3]

San Francisco Chronicle manner editor Sylviia Rubin credits Miyake together with Babette Pinsky with "reinventing" the Fortuny pleat in the 1980s.[5]

In the late 1980s, he began to experiment with new methods of pleating that would let both flexibility of motion for the wearer besides as ease of care and production. The garments are cut and sewn first, so sandwiched between layers of paper and fed into a heat press, where they are pleated. The fabric'due south 'memory' holds the pleats and when the garments are liberated from their paper cocoon, they are fix-to wear. He did the costume for Ballett Frankfurt with an ultra plume-polyester jersey permanently pleated in a slice named "the Loss of Modest Detail" William Forsythe and also work on ballet "Garden in the setting". Miyake realized that the new method of making clothes fit well in dancers. Subsequently studying how dancers move, he sent 200 to 300 garments for dancers to wear a different 1 in each performance of The Last Detail. This led to the development of Pleats, Delight range and inspired him to use dancers to display his work.[iii]

He had a long friendship with Austrian-born pottery artist Matriarch Lucie Rie. She ancestral to him her substantial collection of ceramic and porcelain buttons, which he integrated into his designs and presented in new collections.

He also developed a friendship with Apple tree's Steve Jobs and produced the black turtlenecks which would get a part of Jobs' signature attire. Jobs said, "So I asked Issey to make me some of his black turtlenecks that I liked, and he made me like a hundred of them."[one]

Legendary designer Geoffrey Beene stated that he admired Issey Miyake for Miyake'south technique, this in an interview with poet/artist Steven Vita in Veery journal, 1991.[vi]

In March 1992 he was quoted in the International Herald Tribune as saying "Design is non for philosophy—it's for life."[7]

In 1994 and 1999, Miyake turned over the design of the men's and women's collections respectively, to his acquaintance, Naoki Takizawa, so that he could return to inquiry full-time. In 2007, Naoki Takizawa opened his own make supported by the Issey Miyake Group and was replaced as Artistic Director past Dai Fujiwara who ran the House of Issey Miyake until 2012. The design duties were dissever as of the Spring/Summer 2012 collections, with Yoshiyuki Miyamae appointed head designer of the women's collection and Yusuke Takahashi designing the men's line.
