The Show: Sunhee Spring 2013
The Theme: The water infusion print that fronted the Sunhee SS13 invitation was the very essence of the entire collection. It inspired flowing silhouettes, made its way onto a draped top and silk cocktail dress, and called for a cascading waterfall that doubled as a backdrop for the presentation. The serene atmosphere invited us to channel our energies directly into Sunhee’s designs.
The Color Palette: While we saw shades of charcoal and black with flashes of royal blue for her AW12 show, this season Sunhee is bursting with color. A demure, ecru skirt and trench jacket gave way to bronze, laser-cut details. Blush and amethyst hues made up crystal graphic patterns, and a coral tinted pink complemented fuchsia wool. Later, aqua and chartreuse blended on a button down that was paired with a ruched, turquoise skirt – the look evoking images of the ocean.
Best/Collection’s Signature Standout Look: Although a certain gracefulness ran throughout the collection, each piece was given a unique twist. A cotton knit, drop waist dress was completed with embroidered lines that shaped its pleats. Geometric leather cut outs gave edge to the bodice of a chiffon babydoll. And neon pops of citron confirmed that just like water, Sunhee knows no bounds.
