FAQs

What is the primary material of this stole?

The stole is primarily made of 70% polyester, with a blend of 20% silk and 10% wool.

How do I wash this Issey Miyake stole?

It is recommended to use a laundry net, a neutral detergent, and liquid oxygen bleach if needed. Hand wash or use a delicate cycle and dry flat.

Is this stole suitable for men?

While designed with women in mind, accessories like stoles can be styled by anyone. However, its specific design elements lean towards womenswear.

What are the dimensions of the stole?

The stole is approximately 186 cm in length and about 94 cm in width.

Can I machine dry the stole?

No, it is best to avoid machine drying. Air dry the stole flat to maintain its shape, texture, and prevent shrinkage.

What does 'hand-pleated finish' mean for the drape?

The hand-pleated finish is what creates the signature, intricate folds that give the stole its characteristic three-dimensional and flowing drape.

Is this stole heavy?

No, the stole is described as lightweight, making it comfortable for layering.

Troubleshooting

Pleats losing definition after washing.

Ensure a laundry net was used and avoid excessive agitation. Gently reshape the pleats while the stole is damp and allow it to air dry flat. A steamer can also help restore pleat definition.

Fabric feels stiff or less soft.

Ensure you used a neutral detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect natural fibers. Air drying is crucial for maintaining softness.

Color appears faded.

Avoid direct sunlight during drying. If washing, ensure the detergent is color-safe and use cool water. Liquid oxygen bleach should be used sparingly and according to instructions.

Stole doesn't drape as expected.

Ensure the stole is fully unfolded and allowed to settle on the shoulders. The 3D drape is inherent to the pleating and fabric blend; sometimes, it just needs a moment to fall into place.
