The result travels, washes and packs flat, and every season the house treats the cloth as a canvas for graphic printing. This dress is attributed to the Spring-Summer 2019 collection, a season that leaned towards loose, gestural, hand-painted motifs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cut is the line's rounded bell silhouette: cap sleeves, a simple jewel neck and a skirt that flares into a wide circle, so that the print opens out like a fan when you move. The artwork runs in vertical panels, so the front and back read differently; one side is dominated by black calligraphic strokes over turquoise and peach, the other by scattered black spots across orange, red and green.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the body it hangs close at the shoulder and then floats. It is a dress that needs nothing but a flat shoe and perhaps a black turtleneck beneath in cooler months; the pleats hold their shape all day and never crease in a suitcase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabels confirm the Pleats Please main line, style PP91-JH723, tagged size 3, made in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner:\u003c\/strong\u003e Issey Miyake, Pleats Please line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeason:\u003c\/strong\u003e Attributed to Spring-Summer 2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel \/ ref:\u003c\/strong\u003e PP91-JH723\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% polyester, garment-pleated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Multicolour painterly print: coral, cobalt, jade, peach, black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTagged size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 (roughly UK 12-14, stretches generously)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chest (pit to pit) 42 cm · Length 90 cm (measured flat)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dress only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorn only a handful of times by the previous owner.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo visible stains, snags or pulls on the pleating.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColours bright and unfaded; pleats crisp throughout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabels intact and legible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition grade \u003cstrong\u003eA\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Japanese scale; see \u003ca href=\"\/fr\/blogs\/news\/japanese-condition-ranks-explained\"\u003eJapanese condition ranks, explained\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe labels, materials, stitching, hardware and construction are examined together and documented in Japan before dispatch; anything that cannot be confirmed is stated plainly in the description.
