Juun.J\u2019s Fall\/Winter 2018 Paris Collection entitled \u201cLapped\u201d is designed to showcase the beauty of different garments coming together to create multiple layers and elements of dynamism \u2013 an extension of Juun.J\u2019s foundational belief that complex layering can often bring out more beauty than can exposure of the human

In his nascent days of Juun.J, the artist found the help he needed at Samsung Fashion and Design Fund (SFDF) \u2013 a Samsung C&amp;T Fashion Group incubator program for promising fashion designers \u2013 from the years 2009 to 2011.<\/p><p>Juun.J was a three-time winner of this award program, which offers up to US$100,000 of funding over the course of a year, and during this period of support, he further solidified his position in menswear.<\/p><p>In the past years, Juun.J has delivered a modern reinterpretation of men\u2019s suits, trench coats, and dress shirts, showcasing the evolution of his \u201cstreet tailoring\u201d philosophy and gradual transformation into a style that\u2019s considered more gender-neutral.<\/p><p>With this rising popularity, Juun.J has become an alluring option for celebrity wardrobes as well. Global musicians such as Rihanna, Kanye West, and Drake have been spotted donning Juun.J garb. Most recently, K-pop boy band sensation BTS also threw the brand\u2019s jackets, hoodies, and sweatshirts into the limelight, with its new music video \u201cMic Drop,\u201d which racked up over 30 million views in just five days after its release.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a27b79 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7a27b79\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/02\/JuunJ-BTS_2.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzgzOTQsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9uZXdzLnNhbXN1bmdjbnQuY29tXC91cGxvYWRcLzIuMFwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzNcLzIwMThcLzAyXC9KdXVuSi1CVFNfMi5qcGcifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"359\" src=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/02\/JuunJ-BTS_2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-38394\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/02\/JuunJ-BTS_2.jpg 940w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/02\/JuunJ-BTS_2-300x140.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Source: BTS Official Music Video (left), Farfetch\u2019s official website (right)<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5957182 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5957182\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/02\/JuunJ-BTS_1.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzgzOTUsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9uZXdzLnNhbXN1bmdjbnQuY29tXC91cGxvYWRcLzIuMFwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzNcLzIwMThcLzAyXC9KdXVuSi1CVFNfMS5qcGcifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"359\" src=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/02\/JuunJ-BTS_1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-38395\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/02\/JuunJ-BTS_1.jpg 940w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2018\/02\/JuunJ-BTS_1-300x140.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Source: BTS Official Music Video (left), Farfetch\u2019s official website (right)<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a8e9cc elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0a8e9cc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">This Year\u2019s SFDF Talent<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c57755f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c57755f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>There is likely no path that well-trodden in the world of fashion.
