This is one of the fashion shows I would've attended this past NYFW had I not had to bow out for health reasons. Son Jung Wan's Fall/Winter 2019 collection was a luxurious mixture of faux fur, bold prints, sequins, velvet and embroideries. Known for her use of edgy fabrics, the designer worked various combinations of texture, pattern and bold color to create a playful yet romantic vibe with looks that combined retro charm with modern details. I've highlighted some of the looks that stood out to me.
South Korean designer Son Jung Wan who majored in Industrial Craft at Sookmyung Women's University also attended design school at International Mode in Seoul. She opened a small shop across the street from Galleria Department Store to showcase her own collection in 1989 and just a year later the Galleria offered her a shop within their store In 1993, the designer was awarded the “Golden Needle Award” from the Korea Fashion Editor Association and in 2005, she was named “Designer of the Year” by Seoul Metropolitan.
