Steve J & Yoni P Fall/Winter 2014: Seoul Fashion Week

Modern-day activists were the muses of Steve J & Yoni P's Fall/Winter 2014 show at Seoul Fashion Week, according to the designers' press release. The Korean duo's collections always mine youth subculture: last season was longboarding, this season it's punk for the fashion set. Think dense florals and camouflage patterns on comfortably tailored separates and sweats, or coats with high necklines that covered half of the models' faces (a nod to the anarchist's bandana). A chain motif appeared on several garments, and OC friend Joomi Lim added her signature spike jewelry to the mix. But despite all the angst, the shapes were classic, perhaps because you want your wardrobe to be easy when you feel like you're fighting all day. As a T-shirt we saw on the runway put it, "Nevertheless, life goes on."
