Fiona Bae: Make Break Remix, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A bold, stylish look at the global rise of Korean culture and style in the words and images of those shaping and living it.

K-pop, K-fashion, K-drama, K-beauty: over the last decade, K-style has exploded onto the global scene. What is behind this phenomenon? Where does K-Style go from here? Make, Break, Remix: The Rise of K-Style makes no attempt to define or categorize, instead celebrating the eclectic, multi-faceted nature of K-Style and its home city of Seoul.

Through interviews with fifteen tastemakers who are shaping K-style across creative sectors, from 1Million Studio's Lia Kim to leading K-pop stylist Youngjin Kim and drag pioneer Nana Youngrong Kim, Fiona Bae tells untold stories from true insiders, exploring a sense of identity in their work, how living in Seoul affects them and their creative output, and the decade of changes that has brought about the current K-style.

Interwoven with these texts, six distinct photo-essays from celebrated photographer Less (recent credits including Vogue Korea, i-D Korea and Dazed) capture the vibrant energy of Seoul's streets and the incredible style of its youth. Songwriter and A&R Danny Chung, Hypebeast's Elaine Y. J. Lee and creative strategist Jason Schlabach, their work embedded in K-style, add their own vital perspectives on the scene, while fashion journalist Sukwoo Hong sits down with brands to watch for his K-fashion directory. Designed by Hezin O, with a distinct typography that blends Hangul and Latin, this is a bold, stylish look at K-style in the words of those shaping it.
