Style Sharing is a fashions exhibition exploring the
symbiotic relationship between Korean and British styles. Showcasing the work
of Korean designers inspired by British life, it highlights the differences
between classic ‘Britishness’ and what is known as ‘Hallyu’ a Korean term for
South Korean culture’s popularity in the West.
I went along to the exhibition launch last night at the
Korean Cultural Society. Curated by my dear friend and creative talent, Tory
Turk, it was a very stylish affair. She commissioned British filmmaker Eion
Glaister to produce film shorts to accompany each designer’s individual
exhibits. Graduates from London College of Fashion and Central Saint Martins
provided the garments. Style Sharing is on until 4th March – make
sure you catch it!
