멀티매거진 for your fashion fetish…
“Fabulous Fashionistas” 컬럼에서는 서울의 뛰어난 멋쟁이들을 소개해 드립니다. 여기서 “멋”이란 어떠한 유행을 의미하는 것이나 비싼 명품 아이템을 자랑스럽게 가지고 있는 것을 의미하는 것이 아닙니다. 자기 자신의 패션 스타일을 특별히 잘 보여주는 사람, 창조적인 코디로 눈에 확 띄는 사람, 그런 분들을 이 컬럼에서 만나보실 수 있습니다.
In the Fabulous Fashionistas column, we shoot the most fashionably original people we can find on the streets of Seoul and bring them to you. We don’t choose them because they follow the trends the most closely, nor because they have the most designers labels attached to their bodies, but because they’ve managed to create their own unique style that one can’t simply pass by without wanting to remember.
We met a lot of people on our trip to Hongdae last week, but the two young ladies we ran into in the park — Ms. Funky on the left and the Ms. Fifties on the right — really left an impression.
홍대에 지난 주말에 갔을 때 너무나 패션어블 사람들을 많이 만나봤는데 놀이터에서 우연히 만났던 이 두 언니들이 너무 특이한 거예요. 왼쪽의 친구는 좀 ‘funky’스타일이고 오른쪽은 ‘50년대 보수적인’ 스타일의 컨셉이래요.
Wow. The orange-and-yellow checkered corset is cool as all get out, which Ms. Funky on the left said she bought from the clothing store she used to work at, which has since gone out of business. Since it wasn’t a big brand item, anyway, it’s now pretty much one-of-a-kind. As for Ms. Fifties on the right, we loved her old school hair and makeup, accented with the self-consciously cute, heart-shaped hairpins. Work it, girl!
우와. 오렌지/노란색 체크무늬의 코르셋은 재밌고 본인의 일했던 옷가게에서 샀대요. 근데 그 옷가게는 없어졌으니까 이 건 아주 특별한 거고일단 원래는 특별한 브랜드아니었고. 완전한 ‘시장 패션’이다! 우리 50년대의 공주의 머리스타일과 화장품을 맘에 드네요. 하트의 모양 머리핀도.
Dizzam. Wow. Jumpin’ Jehosophat! Look at those old school, 50’s secretarial stockings with the seam. I had a hunch they weren’t purchased in Korea, and upon asking, she said that she had indeed purchased them on the Internet. Very nice, very Betty Boop. Or perhaps that would be Bettie Page? You can see a similar look here, which we found in Idae.
와우. 이런 스타킹을 한국에서 구하기 힘든 것같다고 생각해는데 물어보니까 역시 인터넷에서 샀대요. 진짜 Betty Boop을 생각하네. 아니면 Bettie Page? 여기도 이대에서 약간 비슷한 분위기있는 기사를 보지죠.
These two fabulous fashionistas are both into design, are eminently stylish, and are even forming their own band. Can they get much cooler? We do have the feeling we’ll see them again, so we’ll have to come back and check in on them sometime. And thanks to both of them for taking the time to both pose and answer our barrage of questions! Looking great, ladies!
이 멋진 여성들이 지금 디자인쪽에 일하는 거고 지금 밴드도 준비하는 거네요. 이 언니들한테 진짜 다시 볼 느낌이나는 것같네요. 궁금한 것들 진짜 많아서, 그쵸? 이 만큼 멋진 사람들을 실제로 만날 기회가 있었으니까 진짜 내 영광였죠. 이렇게 멋진 포즈와 긴 얘기를 해주니까 고마웠어요!
