[ Stars' Style ] Korean Super Model "Yoon-ju Jang"











Korean Super Model "Yoon-Ju, Jang"


She doesn't have a typical pretty face nor is as tall as other supermodels. But she is a real fashionista we love. Her height is considered small as a model but thanks to well-proportioned figure and oriental beauty, she became one of the most wanted models in Korea. She has passion in Fashion and Art and hat's the reason she looks different amongst others. She published her first book "Style", which shows girls the way to live stylish and healthy life, and without doubt it became a bestseller.

[ Collection ] 2011 S/S 3.1 Phillip Lim




2011 S/S Phillip Lim

"Phillip Lim", the designer C&B love, his 2011 Spring Summer collection pieces are sensational.

 Meenal Mistry in Style.com, he explained as below.

"Is that part of the skirt?"

"Well, it's a dress here, and the apron goes on top. So it's, like, is it one piece? Two pieces? Three pieces? The apron really abstracts the negative space and changes the silhouette."

That's a brief excerpt from Phillip Lim, in which he explained his puzzle-piece concept: Backless, side-less, and bottomless garments all somehow came together to form a full look. It was certainly an ambitious gambit, not easy to pull off, but it made for one of the best and most refined
3.1 collections to date.

The most important thing is that we can recognize he examine thoroughly his work of art and progress into master piece. He is great.
