Gyo Yuni Kimchoe, known for their pioneering voice for sustainable fashion highlights the concept of recycling in their Spring Summer 2016 collection – the Enlightened Rebel.

Taking key reference from two truly inspiring sources, the Buddhist Monks and British Rebel culture we can see a diverse mix of fabrications and silhouettes found in progressive stages, visually and theoretically through this collection. Not only Buddhism itself is highly related to sustainable philosophies but also, Buddhist monks are only allowed to wear recycled clothing nodding to the brands ethical stance and the intricate patchwork details seen this season. - Avery Parker

Spring/Summer 2016

Autumn/Winter 2015 ‘The Thanatos Expedition’

Gyo Yuni Kimchoe were inspired by ‘the concept of travel into space and virtual worlds, combined with the Mongolian Shamans’, coming up with the show title ‘The Thanatos Expedition’. The first model set the tone making it obvious that the collection was inspired by space and astronomy. From fringes to fur, leather and braids to tweed pieces the show was all about AW15 trends, edgy and different with that oh-so-obvious space influence.
