Issey Miyake’s ‘132 5.’ range of women’s wear explores the multiple dimensions manifest in clothing. Created using computer software, each piece starts as a single sheet of fabric folded into a flat geometric shape. When lifted from the centre, it opens up in a series of origami-like folds to form a cascading three-dimensional structure. The fifth dimension is achieved when the garment is worn and brought to life by the wearer.
