THE REFINED
Role:
-
Conducting research and developing designs under constructions of Dr. Ja Young Hwang and Professor Joanne Arnett

Fashion Designer

Technical Designer
The Refined is a 4-month CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) design project of apparel collection that is inspired from conceptual sketches used in architecture. The project has been implemented through five stages:
-
Stage 1: Trend Research
-
Stage 2: Inspiration and Fabric Selection
-
Stage 3: Design Research and Experimental Process
-
Stage 4: Product Development
-
Stage 5: Collection Finalization
Not only projecting the beauty of simplicity and complexity as a whole throughout the design flow, the collection also cares about social responsibility by featuring more potentially sustainable fabrics made of fibers such as organic cotton, alpaca, bamboo and silk.
