Vintage Issey Miyake A-POC Ombre Stripe Shawl Late 1990s Yellow Green Blue

Bands of yellow, green and blue melt one into the next across this Issey Miyake shawl, the ombre field punctuated by crisp white stripes that run the full length of the fabric. The surface shifts between matte and subtle sheen depending on the light, offering both color and texture in a single, fluid panel. No visible logo or hardware interrupts the uninterrupted textile; the effect is pure Miyake — graphic, improvisational, and tactile.

A-POC (A Piece of Cloth), the experimental line developed by Issey Miyake and Dai Fujiwara in the late 1990s, took its cue from the possibilities of continuous knit construction. This shawl’s seamless ombre transitions and engineered stripes reflect the spirit of that era — a period when Miyake’s studio was reimagining how clothing could be made, with the textile itself as the starting point.

Soft and lightly textured to the touch, the fabric drapes easily and offers a generous single compartment for wrapping or layering. The piece shows minimal signs of wear and arrives without additional accessories.
