SPRING SUMMER 2023 COLLECTIONS
Seoul is one of the most active cities in the world. The place itself gives me a lot of energy. And I love how futuristic vibes and traditional elements coexist in this city. – Kiminte Kimhekim
“The modern structure and elevated simplicity of KIMHĒKIM’s tailoring are styled with active wear such as UV-protective and highly absorbent tops and leggings, convertible shield sunglasses, and reflective running gears including gym bags, hats, and sneakers. Micro-short skirts in nylon, exaggerated bow tops in Mikado silk, and belt-attached details show the new aspect of couture.” – from Kimhēkim
