Vintage Issey Miyake Pleats Please Cosmetic Pouch Red Black

Accordion pleats ripple across the surface of this compact pouch, with the saturated red fabric forming a geometric play against black mesh side panels. The sculptural silhouette is defined by Issey Miyake's signature pleating technique, which imparts both structure and movement to a piece designed for the hand.

A black zip closure runs the length of the top edge, opening to a bright red fabric-lined single compartment. The pouch is free from visible branding, relying on form and fabrication for its identity—a hallmark of the Pleats Please line. The construction is light yet resilient, intended for handheld carry or to be slipped inside a larger bag.

First introduced in 1993, Pleats Please represents Issey Miyake's exploration of technical textiles and dimensionality. The pouch’s precise pleating references the collection’s focus on practicality, ease, and modernist design, while the colour-blocked palette is closely associated with Miyake’s late 1990s and early 2000s accessories.

Condition is excellent, with no visible marks or fabric pulls; zipper and lining are clean and fully functional.
