Issey Miyake is the first Japanese designer to gain international fame. Miyake was born in Hiroshima, Japan in 1938. He studied at the Tama Art University in Tokyo and at the Syndicat de la Couture in Paris, and worked in Paris (designing for Guy Laroche and Givenchy) and New York City (designing for Geoffrey Beene) before founding his own design studio in Tokyo in 1970.
Miyake has been the world leader in merging art and technology in fashion. Miyake's early creations were variations on traditional Japanese themes, but by 1976 he had begun radical experimentation and highly innovative designs, including being the first designer to use Ultrasuede.
In 2003, Miyake stopped producing haute couture entirely to focus on inventing fashions. "I became a fashion designer to make clothes for the people, not to be a top couturier in the French tradition.", he said.
Miyake has won numerous fashion awards, including the Neiman Marcus Award and the Council of Fashion Designers of America International Award.
