The Design

About Coexistence Unuseksa Modo

Ĉi tiu kolekto reinterpretas la Hanbok (tradicia korea kostumo), kiu estas la bazo de la siluetoj. La maniero vesti eksperimente donas liberecon kaj kreemon al ĉiuj frontoj. La kostumo Kunvivado kombinas supron, robon kaj pantalonon; tamen ĉi tiu robo reuzas la jakan ŝablonon kaj la supron, la ŝablonon de la kolumo de la Denim-Longa mantelo. La Jako Plisa devenas de la ŝablono de la Malsimetriaj Pantalonoj. Ĉu tio estas jako aŭ pantalono?

Unique Properties: The Coexistence collection 2019-2020 fall, winter is inspired by the values of community life.
In this collection, a mix and match style of HANBOK (traditional Korean costume) merges different colors and materials. The way to dress experimentally gives freedom and creativity to all fronts; a universal message without distinction of language, culture or origin. Diversified materials, as well as the quality of the finishing and the unique style, are an integral part of the DNA of these clothes; all enhanced with a mix of custom patterns that have been printed with calligraphy and multiple colors.
Dimensions & Packaging: This Collection consists of 1 coat, 2 jackets, 1 jumpsuit, 3 pants, and regular M/L size.
Tags: Perspective, Hanbok, Deconstructionism, Coexistence, Geneva, Unisex
Production Technology: I drew two fabric prints, one using calligraphy and, the other, multiple colors. In both cases, the pattern represents the integration. Also, I created a quilted with two different colors of denim for this collection.
Design Challenge: I wanted to start from the Hanbok and reinterpret it with a modern image. At first, being so much used to the Hanbok' standards, I was not able to see it differently, to bring something new.
I have tried different approaches; on fabrics, applications,... many attempts to overcome it.
Eventually, the use of denim, reflective materials and cotton printed with various language motifs resulted in a collection combining modern and traditional images in coexistence and harmony.
Research: One day, I was visiting the MAMCO (Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Geneva) to find inspiration.
I saw a painting containing a multitude of times the letter Y.
Although I thought I saw X, there was only Y, no X.
At that moment, imagining an X in the middle of all these Y, I told myself that this X is like me; a stranger in the middle of all the inhabitants of Geneva.
However, each of these people can feel being an X and see everyone else as Y. Hence, we are all the Y of someone else.
Inspiration: There was a girl who was 8 years old. She was alone at the corner of a park in Geneva, watching the children playing there. She was confused, the children were speaking French. She could not fit into this group.
20 years later, she became a fully integrated person.
This is my story but your story as well.
In Geneva, people from different backgrounds live mixing together. Sometimes they encounter obstacles due to different cultures, different languages.
They have different perspectives to look at the same object.
Through these perspectives, the truth becomes the lie, the lie becomes the truth.
Project Duration: The project started in October 2018 in Geneva and finished in
February 2019. It was exhibited in Le Bal des Createurs, Geneva in May 2019.
Operation Flow: All designs in this collection are reshaping the Hanbok. They break away from the stereotypes of clothing's definitions by experimenting with their position and their functionality.
