How did this collab come about?
Sandra: We met through a television show. We have one shoe – the anthracite glitter Abel – that was featured in the television series, My Love From The Star. Having grown up in the Far East as a child, I know what TV means to Asian culture. My Love From The Star just blew up – and the shoe sold out. When I visited Seoul for the very first time, YK hosted a dinner for me and that was when I actually got to meet his friends. It was amazing how the people around the table were interior designers, illustrators, jewellers, art curators, and fashion designers. I loved this whole hub, this community, and everything that was going on.
YK: For me, I’ve liked Jimmy Choo for years – since it was launched in South Korea, I’ve styled many Korean stars with the shoes. When the Diamond range was launched in South Korea last year, Sandra came to Seoul. We had dinner and were able to have a deeper conversation – and I wanted to explore the idea of a collaborative range with Sandra. So that’s how we met, and began to work together.
