ULKIN founder.Award-winning Korean designer. Dresses K-pop stars Kim Hyuna and Bae Suzy.
Lee Seong Dong is reshaping Korean fashion with his eco-art approach. Since childhood, he's been chasing his designer dreams, and it's paying off big time. His Seoul-based brand, ULKIN, is turning heads and dressing K-pop stars like Kim Hyuna and Bae Suzy.
Lee's designs reflect his artistic background. He's known for deconstructing and rebuilding garments, creating pieces that blur gender lines and fuse eco-friendly art with fashion. His talent for using color and deconstruction to convey each season's message has caught the eye of celebrities like Kim Hyuna and Bae Suzy, who often wear his versatile designs. Lee's work consistently embodies his philosophy of "reducing the gap between art and the public," making each piece a unique blend of art and culture for everyday life.
In this collection, he show unique perspective on balance, harmony, and aesthetics. The collection combines symmetry and asymmetry, merging contrasting elements to create pieces that are both conflicting and harmonious. It's a reflection of Lee's worldview - finding beauty in unexpected places. He also supports emerging artists by helping them set up exhibitions and providing materials, aiming to foster a better creative environment.
