Summary

Final work

I am a multidisciplinary designer equipped with industry-level skills across all areas essential to a design team, including technical flat drawings, lookbook design, and establishing brand visual direction. I am capable of handling multiple roles within a team simultaneously, and I take pride in being prepared enough to deliver the results of a small team on my own.

Course BA (Hons) Fashion Design Technology: Menswear

Graduation year 2025

My graduate collection < Peppermint Candy> began as a gift for my friends and myself—a reflection on the emotional changes, rapid socialization, and fading youth that many Korean men experience during their military service. The main visual is rooted in military garments, featuring a silhouette that combines detail and practicality, while also incorporating playful and bold developments that contrast with an expression of innocence. Although it's a project as a student, I place a strong emphasis on being well-made and maintaining high quality.
