A superb book advertising Miyake Issey’s collection for 1989. This is the first in a series of five collaborative catalogues with Irving Penn that were issues between 1989 and 1995. Merging avant-garde fashion, austere American photography, and bold Japanese graphic design it represents one of the most brilliant transcontinental collaborations in design history. Works 246.
