The Hwan Sung Park Fall/Winter 2013 graduate collection graced the runway stage at the Central Saint Martins MA showcase. The rookie designer’s collection was displayed in an all-white palette of layered textiles, sheer caped accents and clinical themed basics.
Inspired by attire one would traditionally wear in a hospital, this simplistic menswear line pairs fresh white tees and pants along with gauze-like, sheer gowns that are worn atop models’ outfits.
The Hwan Sung Park Fall/Winter 2013 graduate collection mixes clean design lines with an edgy and forward-thinking aesthetic that is synonymous with Central Saint Martins graduates. Embracing minimalism, this collection shows off sharp silhouettes and multiple textile opacities that work together to optimize a somewhat morbid and institutional style inspiration.
