FESCH.TV INFORMIERT:

Issey Miyake, Hiroshima-born fashion designer, dies in Tokyo. Lover of art, design, and technology, Steve Jobs wore Miyake’s black turtleneck almost exclusively since the 80s. His signature pleated designs were famous for never losing shape and being comfortably stylish. Miyake’s work is part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art. Anything else we can add about his legacy in terms of paving the way for other Asian designers to follow in his steps?

The Japanese legend had been fighting liver cancer before passing away at 84 years old.
