Dear Shaded Viewers,
I met Korean designer Kyuin Chae a few years ago in Paris and was impressed with his tailoring skills and individualist streak. For his last collection, he indulged in next season's graphic trend, delivering upbeat and confident clothes for men and women. I love the way he clashed stripes with prints, adding sportswear details to keep the silhouette fresh. Think Jean-Michel Basquiat meets Kill Bill.
Best,
Philippe
