THE PIECES
Dress
Issey Miyake Pleats Please Dress Purple
Shoes
Adidas Japan
WHY IT WORKS
White Japan against cool lavender creates clean tonal contrast. Gum sole provides warm accent. Japan removes the purple's slight avant-garde edge, makes it wearable and unguarded. Slightly less precise than brown dress pairing but within system.
THE TENSION
Cool iridescent architectural fabric vs. heritage athletic shoe
