For the 2010 autumn/winter season, designer Youn Chong Bak of Smalto takes us on a voyage eastward to the great steppe with a collection inspired by traditional ancestor traditions.
Drawing particular inspiration from the history and patrimony of Mongolian menswear, Youn Chong transmits the conquering spirit, festive rites, and human warmth with a oriental journey that breathes mystery into the Smalto man.
