Issey Miyake Spring 2016 Baked Stretch Dress

Simple, straight silhouette of colorful wavy pleats that bounce as you walk.  Made in Japan.  Sourced in France.

An incredible piece of fashion innovation. From Vogue's review of the Spring 2016 collection: "Designer Yoshiyuki Miyamae continued to test the horizons of what a pleat can be and do, introducing a new 'baked stretch' technique that molds pleats into the body of a fabric. The most compelling looks featured wavy baked stretch pleats, with contrasting colors printed into the curves; as the sculptural garments moved, they had a spring action, a little like that of a Slinky."
