知名日本設計師三宅一生病逝 享壽84歲Famed Japanese designer Issey Miyake dies at 84

Japanese fashion designer Issey Miyake has died at the age of 84. He was known for building one of Japan’s biggest fashion brands and making clothes with different styles and materials. His name became a byword for Japan’s economic and fashion prowess.

One of his most famous designs is the signature black turtleneck he made for his friend and Apple founder Steve Jobs.

Throughout his 52-year career, Issey Miyake was interested in the overlap between art, design, and fashion. He even hated being called a fashion designer and always referred to his designs as “clothing” rather than “fashion.”

友善讓你懂│解說:

日本時裝設計師三宅一生近期病逝,享年 84 歲。他打造了日本最大的時裝品牌之一,並以製作不同風格和材料的服裝而聞名。他的名字可說是日本經濟和時尚實力的代名詞。

他最為人所知的設計之一,可能是為他的朋友,也是蘋果的創始人史帝夫賈伯斯製作的一系列黑色高領毛衣,也是賈伯斯最代表性的標誌服飾。

在他長達52年的職業生涯中,三宅一生總是將藝術、設計與時尚重疊, 他甚至討厭被稱為時裝設計師,並且總是將他的設計稱為「服裝」,而不是「時尚」。
