Admittedly, Pleats Please Issey Miyake is a bit of a tech wiz – at least, that's what the label's line-up of accordion-like creations leads us to believe. The April shorts are the latest to join its ranks. Realised from an airy knit, their straight-leg silhouette is ruched into the brand's signature pleated profile: achieved by folding the fabric into a machine between two sheets of paper for a crisp, neat finish. Consider us impressed.
