Issey Miyake 2013 Pleated Ombré Magenta Purple Coat Dress

Issey Miyake Pre-Fall 2013 pleated coat/dress in a striking ombré gradient transitioning from deep magenta to rich violet. Crafted in the brand’s signature heat-set pleated fabrication, the piece forms a fluid, sculptural silhouette that expands and contracts with movement. The sleeves are particularly notable, cut with a softly sculpted volume that tapers toward the wrist, creating a rounded, architectural shape. When worn, they hold a subtle structure while still moving naturally, adding dimension and balance to the elongated silhouette. The ombré effect is amplified by the pleating, with the vertical texture intensifying the color shift and creating a dynamic visual rhythm as the garment moves. Light catches differently across each fold, giving the surface depth and a constantly shifting appearance. Designed with a tailored collar and button front, it can be worn as both a statement coat or dress. A strong example of Miyake’s mastery of color, form, and textile innovation. Excellent condition.
