History

The brand originated in 2000 as part of the Pleats Please Issey Miyake collection before establishing itself as an independent label in 2010. It is recognized for the 'shapes by chance' concept, where the bag's form changes based on its contents. This approach reflects Issey Miyake’s broader exploration of the relationship between fabric and the human body. The line remains a significant example of how engineering principles can be applied to contemporary accessory design.
