IAN SUNG
Born and raised in South Korea, now based in New York. I'm a fashion designer leaving my footprints on the fashion world with every step. Inspired by clothing and the individuals who wear them, my journey has been shaped by a diverse background.
Prior to venturing into fashion, I pursued studies in biotechnology and linguistics in Korea. This versatile background has shaped who I am and it’s foundation of my creativity.
To me, creativity doesn’t simply come out of sticking to one area. It comes out of clashing two different things. My diverse experience is the root of my creativity.
