It's been a little over a year since designer Lea Seong established her own fashion company in Shanghai, but there's a lot of attention surrounding her completely feminine designs made of milk fabric.
Seong made a splashy debut in Korea with her women's wear collection at the Pret-a-Porter Busan fashion show in late November.
In an interview with The Korea Times, Seong said she wanted her clothes to be recognized for their distinctive style.
``I want the Lea Seong brand to be known as a feminine line, with full skirts, fringes, soft touches and utter femininity. I want it to be very attractive and get people's attention,'' she said.
Seong was delighted to have been invited by Model Center president Toh Shin-woo to participate at the Pret-a-Porter Busan. She presented her 2010 spring and summer collection inspired by the free-spirited flapper women of the 1920s, with swishy mini-dresses in bright colors and hand-painted detail.
