Jung Wook-Jun’s JUUN.J has presented its Spring/Summer 2024 collection as part of Paris Fashion Week, and it’s safe to say the designer is keen to make an impact.
The collection kicks off womenswear looks akin to Martin Margiela‘s early work — biker references work the boots and knee pads, while the relaxed styling of a jacket tied around the waist says this JUUN.J girl is ready to go. Elsewhere, silver foil branding and dates are reminiscent of Margiela’s Spring/Summer 1997 “Semi-Couture” dummy apron dresses, with the detailing adorning the first men’s look — a pinkish leather utility ensemble — with neck-placed sizing, à la Maison Margiela once again.
These themes occur time and time again, across a black leather look that deconstructs the traditional blazer sans sleeves, and the moto nuances even occur with the bags various models are seen carrying.
Soon, SS24 takes a turn. From day to night, the JUUN.J client has arrived at their destination, clad in pinstriped power suit jacket and short/trouser one-pieces, or more technical designs that take a suit, turn it into a uni item, and add plenty of folds of fabric around the waist — nodding to the earlier tying of the jacket.
JUUN.J explores texture and intricacy with denim jeans also featuring incorporated paneling and knots, before ending the big night out with futuristic space gear.
