THROUGH THIS FUSION, THE GARMENTS IMAGINE THE ATTIRE OF HEROES OF A NEW ERA, FIGURES WHO OVERCOME THE TURBULENCE OF HISTORY AND CREATE A NEW FUTURE.
BOLDLY RESISTING THE BOUNDARIES OF TIME, FORM, CULTURE, AND THE CONVENTIONAL NOTIONS OF GARMENTS, THE COLLECTION RECONSTRUCTS KOREAN CLASSICAL AESTHETICS BY DECONSTRUCTING TRADITIONAL CONCEPTS AND STRUCTURES. THESE ELEMENTS ARE FRAGMENTED INTO ABSTRACT PIECES, THEN CUT, REFINED, AND REASSEMBLED INTO AVANT-GARDE SILHOUETTES. THE VOLUMES OF GARMENTS SWELL AND RECEDE IN RHYTHM WITH THE BODY, WHILE THE UNSTRUCTURED PATTERNS AND FLUID DRAPES MOVE LIKE LIVING SCULPTURES, BLURRING THE LINE BETWEEN THE REAL AND THE UNREAL WHILE AMPLIFYING THE WEARER’S PRESENCE.
ROUGH, EXPOSED SEAMS, LEFT DELIBERATELY UNFINISHED, BECOME SCARS AND STORIES OF THE PAST. ASYMMETRICAL FRAGMENTS FLUTTER AND COLLIDE WITHOUT PERFECTLY ALIGNING, CREATING A DISRUPTIVE AND UNCONVENTIONAL BEAUTY. THE EFFECT IS ABSTRACT AND INTIMATE, AS THOUGH EACH GARMENT CARRIES BOTH THE BONES OF ANCESTORS AND THE BREATH OF THE FUTURE: SLEEVES DRIFTING LIKE FRAGMENTS OF RUINS, HEMS PROTRUDING LIKE DISTORTED MEMORIES. BIAS CUTS AND ASYMMETRICAL DRAPES RESHAPE THE BODY THROUGH FLUID MOVEMENT, WHILE VERTICAL LINES AND PANELS, SEEMINGLY SLICED FROM THE AIR, CASCADE ALONG THE BODY, ADDING TRANSPARENCY AND RHYTHM.
