Song Jain and Jung Wookjun

Song Jain and Jung Wook Jun hosted a special catwalk session at 915 Industry Gallery in Cheongdam-dong. Both designers experimented liberally with voluminous shapes while keeping their color palettes dark and mellow.

Jung brings home his experimental Juun.J F/W 2009 menswear line after celebrating a successful showing in Paris this past January. Particularly to note in this collection are Jung's outerwear pieces, which included fresh variations on the classic men's jacket, trench coats and military-style ponchos. At the same time, slim pants grounded the levity of more voluminous pieces, and feminine silhouettes harking back to the 80s and 90s constantly offset strong masculinity.

Similarly, Song Jain's depicted the darkness and serenity of the winter season through her collection, which was marked by structure amid roomy silhouettes. Particularly to note were black, brown and wine coloring that, coupled with strong, defined tailoring, weighed down lighter fabrics like silk, wool and cotton knits, resulting in simultaneously loose yet tense style.
