Saena Chun was born in 1980 in Seoul, Korea. Here she studied French Literature and Fashion Design at the Ewha Women’s University and took painting courses at an atelier. She then moved to France and was awarded a Diploma in Womenswear in 2006 after attending ESMOD Paris. Saena then remained in Paris to intern and work at a number of different labels, including Sonia Rykiel and Chloé as a design assistant. During these placements she learned to develop the technique of draping dresses to create frill and flounce. She is currently residing in Berlin and this collection is her first step in building up and developing her own designs.
