Busan-based designer Son Jung Wan's Spring/Summer 23 collection presented at Spring Studios in Manhattan on September 10, sporting a vibrant color palette ranging from bright and funky neon pink to classically bold reds.

Wan’s impeccable craftsmanship throughout this collection solidifies itself as a staple in her work which has been highly regarded by many Korean elites. Her clientele ranges from the likes of popular female soloist Chungha to BLACKPINK's Rosé.

Wan’s work represents a small sector of what the Korean fashion scene has to offer to the whole world. The SS23 collection gives New York Fashion Week a glimpse of the interpretation of fashion through the perspective of a Korean woman.
