A Korean cut - The Hindu

Lie Sang Bong is likely one of the most outstanding South Korean clothier on the earth. His clothes are worn with the aid of the likes of girl Gaga, Beyoncé, Juliette Binoche and Yuna Kim. The senior clothier blends an array of influences like Korean poetry, calligraphy and architecture, cubism, Bauhaus design to create outfits the use of options like laser slicing, embroidery and digital printing. Lie has also designed restrained-edition mobile phones and uniforms for the A1 Grand Prix Korean countrywide crew in 2008.

during the past, Lie has additionally occupied the position of President of Council of fashion Designers of KOREA (CFDK) and cultural ambassador of Seoul. In an e-mail interview, he elaborates on how the okay-wave has taken over the complete world.

How a whole lot is the Korean fashion trade pegged at?

in response to the Korean vogue Industrial analysis Centre, Korea's style market grew 2.3 per cent (about 550M greenbacks) in comparison to 2014 to 2015, with the entire market cost of 28.four trillion dollars. in contrast to past in Korea where style was once a necessity, today better incomes enable a purchaser to utilise style to categorical oneself.

who're the major takers of Korean trend? How essential is Indian market for designers like you or for smaller labels and designers in Dongdaemun market?

Korea's trend business & vogue week has now modified to a 'Title Sponsorship' equipment, and is sponsoring predominant foreign select shops, style media shops, and style consultants to discuss with Korea and witness its style scene. chinese retailers have turn into a massive player in the international wholesale market during the past few years for both clothier and Korean mass brands. India is one of the fastest transforming into markets that many designers have an interest in. i'm at all times concerned with alluring and wealthy way of life of India. I have visited it greater than three times and would like to demonstrate my collection there sooner or later.

what's the intent in the back of the recognition of okay-splendor and okay-fashion? In India, there are Korean film golf equipment, americans follow k-serials and ok-pop.

I suppose that the leading reason is 'ok-wave'. They admire Korean stars, and they like to comply with their makeup and clothes and style. This has been helped via Korean executive which is supporting the 'ok-Wave' for the past 10 years. there is awesome hobby in okay-pop, ok-megastar, k-drama, ok-movie, ok-food, ok-beauty and k-fashion and people are taking note of Korean songs, purchasing leading brands of Korea and even following Korean highway style. Social media has extra helped the trigger. individuals in fact discuss with Myeong-dong and Garosugil to take a look at Korean trend and beauty.

What has been the adventure of South Korean fashion industry?

When i was Korea's PR ambassador, inviting the clicking and organising meet-united states of americaturned into the best method to advertise. although these days, foreign press voluntarily involves Korea to analyse and research extra about our trend industry. we now have so many Korean designers who're regular internationally via their vogue shows and boutiques.

Korean designers have challenges to face in the Korean market and are going remote places to cities like London and new york to explore fashion further. but they don't forget Korean aesthetic. as a result of Korea has retained its usual point and experimented with modern ethos, it has been in a position to benefit the admire it has today in the style world.
