about
After dropping out of the Parison School of Design Cho presented two small collections before staging a full-fledged runway show in 2001, which featured sleekly modified trenches, corseted bustiers, and silk fishtail skirts. Though his last show � set in a fairly empty 80th � floor apartment at Trump World Tower � experimented with heavy zippers in oversize heart and floral designs, Cho thrives when he sticks to what he does best: slightly tweaked classics.
The Look
Wispy waif. Slinky skirts and evening gowns embellished with elaborate � if sometimes S&M inspired � braiding, ruching, and lace; shirtdresses with thin (but plunging) necklines; skinny pants with overpronounced buttons and piping.
Who Wears It
Jennifer Lopez, Marisa Tomei, Claire Danes
