Lie Sang Bong (Seoul)

One of Korea's most prominent designers, Lie Sang Bong claims to take his inspiration from French and Korean culture, but for Fall 08 his dark, fantastical constructions look like the bastard children of Issey Miyake, Kenzo, and Givenchy's Riccardo Tisci, as interpreted by a medieval armorer. Working in heavy wool felt, slick draped silks, and swirling fairy-tale prints, he demonstrates a vision that is dramatically experimental, if not particularly wearable.
