Seoul Fashion Week: Yang’s Backstage

What goes on in the backstage shows up on TOMI:MITO. Designer Yang giving a direction to the crew. I love it when the designer is equally stylish as the collection itself, or sometimes even more so. Getting hair did

It’s Not Easy being a Rock Star.

It’s Not Easy being a Rock Star.

I mean a K-Pop Star. Fortunately or unfortunately, many of the rehearsals go on in full force until there is a few minutes left to the start of the show at Seoul Fashion Week. It is usual for security to forbid access at the designer or the producer’s request, but Big Park was gracious enough to let some of us in, which I personally see as a great marketing opportunity for the designer house as it’s another chance to be “exposed” to public (through a media coverage such as what you are reading right now, but it is acknowledged other perspectives exist as well in which the concern is they prefer to keep the collection and production secret and unreleased until the official start of the show). While I always enjoy watching the rehearsals as observing group dynamics is my natural inclination and a forte, Big Park‘s show carried...

Seoul Fashion Week Outfits

What I wore throughout the week, not necessarily in a chronological order: I’m one of those that have a love-hate relationship with hair. This was on one of the better days. Tan leather jacket by Muubaa also worn here, here, here, here, and here (lol can you tell that it’s my fave?!), paneled mini skirt by Elizabeth & James worn here, Hermes scarf worn here, and Pucci fringed clutch shown here in the past. Yes, the shoes. I know. They are EVERYTHING. Who else but Jeffrey Campbell? This was the first day. No outfit shots, actually photos of me are almost nonexistent. Kind of sad because I went all out with long gloves, striped wool sweater, sparkly mini dress, carrot orange beanie (also worn here and here), bright blue super high heels paired with Justin’s coat and all. In reality, I was just trying to find my way around the...

Seoul Fashion Week: Celeb Sighting Part 3

Seoul Fashion Week: Celeb Sighting Part 3

 Spotted Uee at the rehearsal for Big Park. She’s really pretty and tall in person, tall enough to pass as one of the models. You’d be surprised to see how relatively short many of the Korean celebrities are. She definitely sticks out. I will be sharing my experience at the rehearsal in another set of posts dedicated to Back Stage & Rehearsals. Pretty Uee of After School Cha Ye Ryun, actress at Mag & Logan which I didn’t get to go… it was basically impossible to attend every show when the events were being held at two separate venues that were miles apart especially considering traffic. Sort of pooped that I missed this show, as I’ve heard good things about it. Next time for sure. Oh yeah, back to the actress. I didn’t get to see her this time but actually I saw her at a fashion event a few years back...
