YKS Yong Kyun Shin Spring Summer 2014

London debut for the South Korean fashion designer Yong Kyun Shin with his label YKS. With the Spring Summer collection " The Broken" Shin introduced his creativity at the Freemansons' Hall where Fashion Scout held its catwalks and presentations during London Fashion Week.

The concept of this collection is the damaged forms that can be when an object is deliberated or accidentally damaged or through deterioration. Fabrics used are heavy denim in contrast with organic silk and lace. Metal is a presence in his collection with studs and embellishments.

This dress is very beautiful. Depending how it will be worn it is perfect for layering as well. In the summer it is fine as it is, when it is colder a pair of leggings and a long sleeved top underneath will do the job

Shin uses a palette of greys and pinks and the details like huge zips and studs do the rest.

Shin graduated from Central Saint Martins a year ago and he bagged few awards in the fashion industry. If in South Korea you happen to go to the department store " Doota" check Shin' shop "Alogon" for a bit of serious retail therapy.
