KIMHĒKIM
Kimhēkim takes its name from the ancient royal family of Gaya, renowned for their golden artistry and craftsmanship. Reinterpreting this heritage through a modern lens, Kimintē, the Designer, infuses the brand’s collections with a refined passion for self expression and aesthetics - always with a touch of unexpected playfulness. Opening with a solo show, Kimhēkim by designer Kimintē marks the brand’s 10th anniversary under the theme "Enter the spectrum", reinterpreting its archives from the past decade.
BONBOM
"Sensual Futurewear. Couturic Approaches."
Modern re‑cuts of Western dress history with engineered control of generous fabric, building signature pleats and sculptural volume. A high‑end unisex vocabulary that evolves the pleat each season. Bonbom, recognized for its bold collections that blur the boundaries between high fashion and streetwear each season, explores the contradictions between military elements and femininity.
RE RHEE
Rejecting fleeting trends, the brand embraces a timeless approach - distilling design to its essential form through structured silhouettes, refined details, and conscious materials. Designed to transcend age and trends, Re Rh'ee presents a wardrobe that resonates with poised, enduring elegance. Rhee Junebok and Jo Hyunjung present a collection that contemporizes the concepts of tradition and inheritance. As reflected in the theme “Inherited, Rebuilt", the collection views tradition not as a fixed form to preserve, but as something to be dismantled and recomposed.
