Issey Miyake 2000SS Runway Cutout Fringe Top

From Issey Miyake’s Spring/Summer 2000 collection under Naoki Takizawa, a period defined by experimental textile construction and the continuing development of the house’s A-POC philosophy. This black runway top transforms a simple square-neck silhouette through rows of precisely cut elongated loops along the neckline, sides and hem, creating a fringe-like edge that moves freely around the body. The repeated cutwork turns the fabric itself into ornament, reflecting the house’s approach to generating structure and decoration directly through textile manipulation.
