An Interview with Heohwan Simulation A/W12




An interview with VFS showroom designer, Heohwan Simulation:

What were your inspirations behind this collection?
“I looked at images of the street. I saw a photo of a woman in London in the rain wearing a Yohji Yamamoto coat.”

What techniques and materials do you favour and why?
“I like clean cut leather, wool, I have silk and cotton mixed jackets. I want extremely high quality in everything, even in detailing like the zips which have my name embossed on them.”

What are your hopes and expectations of Paris?
“I have already gained stockists from showing in London this week, including two stockists in Italy: Coco Ochwada and Caron Sl. So I hope to get more stockists and buyers in Paris.”
