Yuna Yang, a fashion designer who loves the opportunity to convey the concept
behind her work in addition to her constructed final products, viewing each
piece as a form of art to be shared, rather than simply sold. Yuna Yang
collection is 100% made in Manhattan by the finest couture artisans.
Yuna Yang's designs draw from her personal fascination with immersing
herself in divergent cultures. After completing her BA in fine art from Ewha
Women's University in Seoul, Korea in 2001, she moved to Milan, Italy for a one
year fashion design course at Instituto Marangoni. While in Italy, her
aesthetics, attention to detail and eastern perspective on western fashion
caught the eye of designer Alviero Martini, and she was honored with a
commission to design evening dresses for Milan fashion week (2002). Later,
in 2006 she further honed her technique and received a second BA in fashion
design at Central Saint Martins in London. There she was privileged to work
with famed designers Ann Sofie Beck and Clements Ribiero (2005-2006).
She reached into her own international experience (having lived and worked
in Seoul, Milan, London, Boston and now New York) and her artistic vision to
develop a collection with couture quality yet ready-to-wear women's wear.
