SSENSE Issey Miyake by Thomas Traum

SSENSE commissioned Thomas Traum studio to create a short CGI film to reveal the technological splendor of the Homme Plissé Issey Miyake Spring 2016 Collection. We reimagined the clothing focusing on the line’s innovation on textiles and cut.

"Our idea was inspired by the simplicity of Issey Miyake’s clothes, expressed in particular through the images created by Irving Penn for Miyake’s collections in the ‘80s. In our film, we wanted to create a modern high-tech take of their approach, but keeping the spirit of these images created decades earlier. We wanted to strip the film back to the core essence: Clothes as a container and amplifier of the human body in movement."
