NEW YORK, Aug 18, 2011/ FW/ — Celebrating her second season at Lincoln Center, Korean-born designer Son Jung Wan was inspired by the Isle of Capri and the rich an beautiful hue of the Blue Grotto.
Says Son Jung Wan about her inspiration and her collection, “I have a love for the Isle of Capri. From the Piazzetta to Faraglioni Rocks, every inch of Capri is steeped with beautiful views and awe inspiring colors of nature. Of course, no visit to Capri is complete without a trip and swim in the Blue Grotto. That rich beautiful blue hue gave me inspiration for Spring 2012.”
Launching her own label in 1989, it was an immediate success from the word “go” that in just four years (1993), Son received the “Golden Needle Award” from the Korea Fashion Editor Association. In 2005, she was named “Designer of the Year” by Seoul Metropolitan.
Through the years, the luxurious collections designed by Son Jung Wan consist of impeccably executed separates including tops, skirts, shorts, pants, and jackets as well as dresses all made from the must sumptuous fabrics.
With each collection, Son captures the dual nature of women and how they like to dress; at times pretty and feminine, other times chic and stylish & still others sexy.
