Designer Spotlight: Vauxhall Fashion Scout’s Ones to Watch: Heohwan Simulation.



Heohwan Simulation is the label created by Royal College of Art graduate Hwan Heo in 2010 and is one of those selected for Vauxhall Fashion Scout’s AW12/13 ‘One’s to Watch’.

The Korean born designer studied Menswear at RCA and his womenswear label concentrates on creating an aesthetically pleasing silhouette that takes inspiration from men’s tailoring. Using this as a starting point, Hwan incorporates aesthetic angles within his designs and begins every collection by experimenting with artwork inspired by a critical viewpoint of fashion history and phenomenon.

Hwan Heo has achieved numerous high profile design accolades including Umbro’s Sportswear project and we are very excited to have with us for London Fashion Week.

See what Heohwan Simulation’s AW12/13 collection brings as part of Vauxhall Fashion Scout’s ‘One’s To Watch’ at the Freemason’s Hall, Covent Garden on Friday 17th February at 4.30pm.
