An early Issey Miyake dress from the Autumn/Winter 1972 collection, reflecting the designer's exploration of volume, textile, and the relationship between fabric and the body. Cut from a textured blend of polyester, wool, linen, and nylon, the dress features a softly draped cowl collar, generous sleeves, and a full-length silhouette shaped by an adjustable drawstring waist.

The defining detail lies in the gathered construction across the back and waist, where the fabric is drawn into fine vertical folds before expanding into a voluminous, flowing skirt. The contrast between the controlled gathering and the generous proportions creates a sense of movement without relying on conventional fitted tailoring. An expressive example of Miyake's early design language, balancing sculptural form with the natural behaviour of fabric.
