Ran

Ran is a korean fashion designer. She lives in Milan, where she studied at the Istituto Marangoni. She is known as Irene Hong, the label with which she sells her designs. Ran owns a refined boutique in the heart of the Milanese Cinque Vie section, in Via San Maurilio. Her collections join modern style and oriental atmospheres. The designer’s favorite color is rose, sometimes paired with a pale, antique green, and in the winter, bordeau. In her boutique she sells poetic, feminine evening and daytime wear, wedding dresses, patchwork stoles, strapless bras, but also bags, shoes, hats, and fabric flowers. Her materials are exquisite: inlaid chiffons, brocades, damasks, taffetas, and exquisite embroidered silks, French lace, cashmere and silk, and wools with the subtlest pinstriping.”
