FACOUP urban chic fashion from Korea – totally AW 09!
By Noa • Sep 9th, 2009 • Category: Lead Story, South Korea Fashion & Brands
Ok, so the last edition of South Korean fashion was Nabi Korea, which though absolutely gorgeous, I do understand may not be something that all of us can wear all the time…so I’ve have just had a snoop around for what South Korean brands bring us the latest up to date and happening Fall 09 fashion trends…and I happened to stumble across one called FACOUP which seems to have its pieces pretty spot-on!
Be the judge of it yourself:
This casual top is a great take on the strong shoulder trend which is absolutely everywhere this season. Available in six very versatile and neutral colours, this can definitely be worn to work and costing us only $15.00 a piece there is no reason why we shouldn’t get more than one color?!
Another huge trend this season are the studs – we like studs on everything these days – not just bags and belts and shoes…but jackets, tops and dresses too. And Facoup’s studded miniskirt is absolutely on-trend!! So tailored and slim you can wear it with a white blouse (as in the picture) or throw a blazer over it to make it totally work compatible:
This lovely little mini skirt comes in indigo blue and black – perfect colours to mix and match – wear it with biker boots and a ripped t-shirt to go for a full on rock-chic look or you can pair it with court shoes and a white blouse (throw in a Chanel 2.55 look-alike if you want to top it off) to wear it to the office – going for $35.00…I love black, I love mini, I love studs…need I say what I am most likely to get on next little shopping spree?
A huge huge trend this summer and yes my friends, it will be carrying on into the Fall/ Autumn 09 season as well – Jumpsuits…
If you are lucky enough to be working in anything close to media, publishing, marketing, pr, fashion, advertising…then you could even consider this work wear! Facoup Korea bring us this sort of formal (collar…double breasted with the big buttons etc. etc…) but actually casual (short, sleeveless, playful bow, linen fabric..) jumpsuit for the new season. I personally never got myself a pair a jumpsuit this year – I am just paranoid that they’ll make my bum look way too big…but this one is actually quite cute…I can picture myself on a little sailing holiday along the Greek coast in this.
