SYMBIOSIS A mutually beneficial relationship:

For Ji Won Choi's 2017''Excessivism'' collection-her final thesis project at Parsons School of Design-she combined the concept of modular dressing with the formal elements of the hanbok, South Korea's national dress. Choi's outsize designs featured horizontal and vertical stripes of white and black trim with straps reminiscent of the hanbok's tie closures. In a collaboration with Adidas in 2019, the designer applied the same graphic lines to tracksuits and interchangeable separates, using the sportswear company's trademark three stripes.
