LIE

LIE is the breakaway line from Korean powerhouse designer label, Lie Sang Bong. LIE, helmed by Lie’s son, Lee Chung-Chung, represents the idea of ‘Everyday Luxury with a Twist’ by adding their own innovative design elements and details, to make a beautiful contemporary series of looks. Think New York’s minimal style meets Parisian avant-garde looks.

LIE Fall Winter '21

For this season – named “Perfectly Imperfect” – Chung Chung Lee’s inspiration came from the Danish Olympic equestrian Lis Hartel, who competed despite being paralyzed below her knees due to polio. Through this spirited athlete, Chung Chung wanted to set a tone of “strength and determination in this multi-faceted collection”. More obvious sampling come from the horse patterns and the dressage-inspired colours of grey, brick red and olive, whilst asymmetric cuts, imbalanced silhouettes and manipulated seams all contribute to Chung Chung’s exploration of what it means to be perfectly imperfect.
