Sex might sell, but so too will a gorgeous pair of shoes, thus the Youngwon Kim Graduate Collection campaign will capture people’s attention in two very strong ways. From naked women to architectural footwear, the images are a treat for both men and women. Nevertheless, it is the women that will stick around to learn more about the mastermind behind the designs.
A recent graduate from the London Royal College of Fashion Master program, the young shoe designer pulled all the stops for her Youngwon Kim Graduate Collection. From layered leather uppers to ever-changing heels and constant use of bright colors, they are like works of art for the feet. Interestingly, the heel part is customizable, which will allow women to enjoy a semblance of customization. The designer writes, “Living in the era of post-postmodernism with a number of much cherished and memorable designs, it is my personal aim to design one that will last through time with its beauty intact.”
