Men in Monaco–Zero_Underscore designer Hyungbae Kim looks to his Monaco travels from 2003 for the inspiration of his latest collection. Taking a distinct step away from the collection of last season, the new range is about making sophisticated classic styles young. However, as always, Kim’s charm rests in the details. Tackling a collection of suiting separates and their relaxed counterparts, tailored wears are constructed from lightweight wool. The tuxedo jacket, representative of the need for a formal outfit at any moment is shaped with narrow lapels while trousers feature a backside dart for those who prefer to opt out of a belt for a more clean look. For outerwear, the blazer is treated as the ultimate jacket and altogether, the collection borrows its color palette from a patriotic Monaco.
