Nationality: South Korea, Canada/ Dominican Republic
Headquarter: NYC, USA
Collection: Spring 2021 Ready-to-wear
The Inspiration: At the top of every new season, MONSE designers, Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia, look to vintage pieces to see how they can breathe new life into something that was once loved. For Spring ’21, the duo applied this process not only to their design, but also to their selection of materials by reviving unused fabrics from past seasons. The result is a playfully upcycled collection of unexpected textile combinations including tailored suiting with natural wood hardware, a fisherman knit with pearl embellishments, and a French terry sweatshirt injected with tulle. The spirit of Spring ’21 is both casual and whimsy with sustainability as the keynote of the season.
