WOOYOUNGMI
Wooyoungmi is a menswear label founded in 2002 by Woo Youngmi, the first Korean woman to design men's ready-to-wear, who left Seoul for Paris to launch it after establishing her earlier line Solid Homme. The house has shown in Paris since 2003 and became an official member of the Chambre Syndicale de la Mode Masculine in 2011. Katie Chung serves as creative director. Collections centre on precise tailoring and outerwear, with art and architecture as recurring reference points, sold via own-brand stores and global retailers.
