Tributes to the pioneer Issey Miyake, Who Opened a Door for Japanese Fashion, Dies at 84.

The first Japanese designer to show in Paris, he was known for his origami-like designs, creating pleated skirts, dresses and trousers that afforded freedom.

Issey Miyake, one of the first Japanese designers to show in Paris, whose pleated style of clothing allowed for freedom of movement and whose name became a global byword for cutting-edge fashion in the 1980s, died at the age of 84.

Mr. Miyake was feted in Japan for creating a global brand that contributed to the country’s efforts to build itself into an international destination for fashion and pop culture. In 2010, he received the Order of Culture, the country’s highest honor for the arts.

His insistence that clothing was a form of design was considered avant-garde in the early years of his career, and he had notable collaborations with photographers and architects.

Great Initiative to drive Blacked owned businesses in the US.
Sephora in the US has pledges to direct more dollars to Black-owned businesses after the 2020 murder of George Floyd have resulted in a refreshed mix of products at big-name stores.
Macy’s Inc. says it has quintupled the number of products it sells from Black-owned brands since it signed the Fifteen Percent Pledge, which asks retailers to allocate 15 percent of their shelf space to such items. Sephora says it has more than doubled its offering of Black-owned labels since it made the same pledge. Target Corp. says it’s in a “strong position” to meet its goal of spending $2 billion with Black-owned businesses by 2025.
These moves and others like them have made Black-owned brands more accessible to millions of shoppers. But a lack of data on retailers’ efforts makes it hard to know how widespread such changes are across consumer brands and whether they have levelled the playing field for Black entrepreneurs in a lasting way.

Dior Men’s Collection - Pay Tribute to ‘On the Road’ Author Jack Kerouac, The pre-fall show in London, includes with an exhibition of rare books and manuscripts from the personal collection of designer Kim Jones.

Kim Jones has put collaborations on pause at Dior, after working with leading artists including Kaws, Daniel Arsham, Peter Doig and Amoako Boafo, and joining forces last season with rapper Travis Scott on his spring 2022 collection.

Instead, Kim Jones has found another way to connect his designs to something he loves. “When you tie something in that you’re interested in, people appreciate it and customers react well to it.
