Jean Yu Clothing

Korean-born Jean Yu works out of her Soho, New York shop, where, since 2001, she has offered a 'made-to-measure' service for dresses, bridal gowns and lingerie that are 'contemporary, edgy and cool'. Yu believes there should be no distinction between the lining and the outer fabric. Her dresses and undergarments, made out of silk chiffons, are often somewhat transparent and come in soft colors like peach, black or white. Each piece is conceived as an object of design in and of itself. Pictured here is one of Yu's elegant gowns and an undergarment, which is characteristically transparent and artsy. I like the elegant simplicity. What do you think? See more at Jean Yu.
