J. JS Lee



I've been a little bit rubbish recently and haven't been updating as regularly as I'd like to (and I'm still yet to bombard you with my trip to Japan)! But I'll be sure to do that as soon as the excitement of London fashion week has worn off..
But talking of LFW, I though I'd share one of my favorite shows from yesterday by J. JS Lee. I'm still a relatively new fan as I only discovered her work last season, however I can safely say she's growing to become a favorite of mine. 
For those of you who haven't come across her before, Jackie JS Lee was born in Seoul South Korea and moved to London to take a post-graduate pattern course at Central Saint martins in 2007. She then went on to work for Kisa London as a pattern cutter, before going back to CSM for her MA.
Her collections centre around "sleek and chic androgynous pieces in tailoring", and "Her vision for creating a label which defines a modern woman who is concerned with looking sharp in a uniquely feminine way has been given a platform to launch itself."









Regardless as to whether I’d actually look good in any of these pieces, I continue to imagine myself as this sleek urban woman (who happens to be about 6” instead of my 5”2). I can dream.
However, if I ever manage to create a collection as half as beautiful as I find this one I think I could die a very happy woman…
