Parkchoonmoo Fall 2013
On a very snowy Friday night designer Demi Park debuted her Fall 2013 collection to a full Studio tent. Honestly, I couldn't think of a more perfect night for her to show this season's collection of Parkchoonmoo, it was a weird twist of faith that this line would be inspired by glaciers in the Arctic Sea while New York was under a blizzard. Much of her collection was perfect for the weather conditions that were happening outside: chunky sweaters, vest, and puffy jacket. This season much like her past season had a sense of causal coolness to it.

NYFW: Parkchoonmoo's Avant-garde Mountain Nomad

I was so excited when I read on the Mercedes Benz schedule that Parkchoonmoo made it's way into the tent this season. After seeing her last season I was really intrigued in what she will present for the Fall 2012 season. My hopes were fleeting of seeing her work walk down the catwalk in Lincoln Center until I got an invite to the show two days before the show. It was a early morning for the second day. First show on Friday morning but the anticipation of her show (along with the help of a tall vanilla latte from Starbucks) kept me awake. As I read the description and line list, which was full of Alpaca fur, had me drooling. And what she did with the fur and lambskin wool was amazing. The whole show was very avant-garde but still wearable. At heart I am a downtown girl and love deconstructed look. Parkchoonmoo's clothes are for the downtown underground girls but I feel like even the uptown girls could still rock some of her pieces especially the alpaca coat. I also love that she kept her color palette simple with blacks, whites, and beiges. In doing this she really allowed her clothes to do all the talking.

I am really glad that she kept to her asthetics this fall season. I really love up-coming designers and I see her going far!
What do you guys think of Parkchoonmoo's Fall 2012 collection?

Parkchoonmoo Spring 2012 Collection
Parkchoonmoo who? Chances are you never even heard of this line or the designer Demi Park well things are about to change my friend. I honestly didn't know who or what Parkchoonmoo was until after I found her on a list for fashion week, something about the name jumped out at me and made me want to Google it. Google I did and from the moment I landed on her homepage I knew I was in for it. I looked over her Spring 2011 Collection and Fall 2011 collection and from those two shows alone I KNEW I wanted to be at her Spring 2012 collection.
Park didn't show under the tents but instead at the Eyebeam Art + Technology Center down in Chelsea. This space was PERFECT for her artsy take on her homeland Korea. Beautiful deconstructed clothing with overlays of fabrics. Pops of reds and blues stuck out between the blacks and whites. Models walked down the runway to sick beats that couldn't help but make you feel like you were in an underground grunge club. The whole look and vibe of the Parkchoonmoo show was probably my favorite out of all the shows that I had attended. And some how I got to enjoy it all in the front row.
