[Buy The Seoul Fashion Report!]

우리는 역시 보는 눈이 남 다른 것 같다. 서울 패션 위크에서 고른 커버 모델 이슬기양은 강원 진이라는 타이틀을 이기고 미스 코리아 미로 선발됐다.

Boy, we can pick ‘em, huh? Lee Seul-gi, the cover model we picked from Seoul Fashion Week, has become Miss Korea, after having already qualified by picking up the prize as Miss Kangwon Province!

두 시슨 전 때였지만 양희득씨 패션 쇼에서 이슬기양이 나에게는 그 시슨 가장 생기 있고 신선한 모델이었다.

I still remember seeing her in Yang Hee Deuk’s show two seasons ago, when I simply thought she was the liveliest and freshest model of the entire season.

서울 패션 리포트는 미스 코리아를 커버 모델로 삼는 것이 영광이며, 미스 코리아라는 타이틀이 주어지기 전에 우리가 그녀의 끼를 발견했다는 것도 흥분된다. 우연찮게 서울 패션 리포트는 장년에 크게 유행한 60년대 복고풍인 오드리 헵번을 컨셉트로 커버를 장식했다. 또한 이슬기양은 “I Am a Model”에 출현 당시 오드리 헵번의 느낌을 살린 룩을 소화해 냈다.

The Seoul Fashion Report is honored to have a Miss Korea gracing its cover, and pretty jazzed that we saw her true talents well before she was given the crown. Funny how The Seoul Fashion Report was once more ahead of the curve, as we chose a retro-60’s, Audrey Hepburn look for the cover, since it was such a dominant theme from last year. Here’s how she was done up for her competition in the show “I Am a Model,” which also did an Audrey Hepburn thing:

짙은 눈썹을 돋보이게 한 우리의 메이크업이 조금은 과하다고 생각할 수도 있지만 그 당시에는 짙은 눈썹이 유행이었다는 것을 잊어서는 안 될 것. 오드리 헵번 그 녀 조차도 짙은 눈썹의 유행을 피 할 수 없었다.

Now, one might say that the eyebrows on our version were a bit much, but you have to remember how crazy eyebrows were back then, and even on Audrey herself:

눈썹이 얼마나 짙은지 보이시죠?

See what I mean?

어찌됐든, 외국인 독자들을 위해 미스 코리아의 첫 인터뷰를 하고 싶다. 이젠 그녀는 당 문간 많이 바쁘겠지만 우리를 위해 시간을 내 줄 거라 믿는다.

Anyway, we hope to get a hold of Seulgi and offer the first interview of Miss Korea for the foreign audience. Of course, I’m sure she has a lot to do in the coming days, but I trust she’ll make some time for us.

양희득의 화려하고 행복한 황홀한 세계에 환영합니다! 양디자이너의 쇼와 옷이 정말 매력적이고 서울패션위크에 갈 때마나 많이 기대하는 디자이너이예요. 밑에 말이 서울패션위크에 나누어준 “Esquisse”이란 홍보팸플릿에 나온 거예요:

2000년 론칭한’아이섹스(Eye Sex)’의 디자이너 양희득. 일본에서 의상을 공부하고 홍콩과 대만에서 주로 활동하고 있다. 2003년 홍콩패션위크부터 시작한 개인컬렉션은 작년서울패션위크에 이어 올해가 두 번째. 양희득은 ‘크루즈(Cruise)’라는 테마로 화려한 보헤미안 룩을 선보인다.

Welcome to the world of Yang Hee Deuk, where color and giddiness reign. His shows and clothes are continuously enthralling, and I look forward to them each Seoul Fashion Week. Here is a profile of Yang Hee Deuk from the Esquisse pamphlet handed at at SFW:

Heedeuk Yang launched Eye Sex in 2000. His work in centered in Hong Kong and Taiwan He began working there after he majored in the ’study of clothes’ in Japan. He participated in Hong Kong Fashion Week in 2003 and then Seoul Fashion Week last year. Heedeuk shows splendid Bohemian style under the theme “Cruise.”

Here’s the entire S/S 2009 show itself, in order. This is the first complete show we’re covering, and we’ve got many more to collate. So keep coming back, since like good food, it takes time to cook. And remember — even if a show’s not already written up, the pictures might be in our photo stream already (for example, Denise’s Song Jain photos are already up). All of our photos, including the ones below, are linked to a VERY high-resolution version, and are probably the highest-resolution, highest-quality photos related to Korean fashion or Seoul Fashion Week that you can get on the web. Our magazine cares about quality, which is why photos take a while to process, but if you wait, you won’t be disappointed.

Love the 60’s haircut and overdone eyelashes, and giddy, Austin Powers feel of the entire affair, a mood that the Abba soundtrack helped define, especially as the colors got brighter and the patterns wilder.

“Yeah, baby, YEAH!”

It’s getting ethnic up in here!

The party on the dance floor — set to Abba’s “Dancing Queen” — was truly nice. I liked the celebratory atmosphere, along with the way designer Yang really gave the audience a small slice of his personality and ended the show with the same flair that characterized it in the first place. Truly well-done.

지금 양희득의 쇼의 사진을 정리중인데 조금 보여드리고 싶어서 2장을 올렸어요. 많은 쇼들 중에는 이 모델은 개인적으로 많이 좋아하는 거예요. 물론 예쁜데 또 표정은 밝고 멋진 포즈도 잘 잡는 거고 Madonna의 “보그”이란 동서의 의미를 카메한테 딱 전하는 파워가 있는 거예요. “Go, go, you go, girl!”

We’re still collating and processing the pics from this show, but we wanted to give you an appetizer. She’s one of my favorite models from the shows, and really knows how to vogue it, show it, work it!

개인적으로 양희득은 아주 좋아하는데. 쇼는 화려하고 진짜 연기적인 엔터테인멘트성도 있어요. 물론 옷도 이쁘지만 양희득디자이너는 정말 자기 일을 즐거워하시는 것같기도고 어떻게 보면 그 분한테 일도 같지 않은 것같네요. 관객으로써는 너무 깊은 재미를 느껴지니까 그 생각을 드네요. 노는 것 같다고요!

And Yang Hee Deuk is one of my favorite designers. He’s always very colorful, puts on a great show, and shows clothes that are truly interesting. And he seems to have retained a sense of fun that is just infectious. Go, Hee Deuk!
