Ex-Celine designer left for Kitsuné

Seoul designer Yuni Ahn (Yuni Ahn ), educated at London and worked for many brands, including Celine, accepted an offer to move to Maison Kitsun ("Fox House"). This is a French brand, created 12 years ago by friends-musicians and creative experimenters Gildas Loaek and Masai Kuroki.

The guys came up with not only a brand symbol, a chanterelle, but also three very simple and comfortable clothing lines in the style of Parisian casual. Not stopping at fashion, Gildas and Masaya opened cafes all over the world and even brought their clothing collection to a couple of years agoMoscow.

 

Designer Yuni,although originally from Seoul, was educated at the Holy of Holies of fashionCentral College of Design and Art named after SaintMartin in Londonstrong>, trained with Stella McCartney, where she carefully studied embroidery and even designed flagship boutiques for Stella in New York, Paris and London. Then she was called to Celine, where the Korean woman was responsible for accessories and a women's line. At the same time, other famous brands often turned to her experience and talent: Uni consulted and created works for the accessory line of such fashion pillars as Theory, Prada, Isabel Marant, Miu Miu, Paul Smith, as well as Simone Rocha and AllSaints.

Leaving The house of Celine in April of this year, due to disagreements, Uni went, as they say, to nowhere. In fact, she made a very interesting choice, accepting the offer of a brand that does not yet have a clear image in fashion (except for a funny fox as a symbol), but is considered in Paris is trendy, youthful and exactly meets the requirements of millennials.
