“Beauty is like a sunset; it goes as soon as you try to capture it. The beauty you like is precisely that which escapes you” a very well-known quote by Japanese fashion heretic Issey Miyake, which signifies his balance of practical and poetic wisdom, sadly passed away on August 5th in Tokyo encircled by family and friends. Reports say the cause of death was hepatocellular carcinoma, a type of liver cancer. He was 84 years of age and as per the designer's wish there was no memorial service or funeral meeting but the world has come together on digital platforms to pay tribute to the legend.
