PARIS, Oct 12, 2006/ FW/ --- In a very directional and thematic show, Lie Sang Bong continues to show maturity as a designer every passing season, coming up with unique creations that are refreshingly sweet yet edgy.

Giving a nod to the black & white trend this season, Lie Sang Bong did not go for the traditional solid white or solid black. Instead, the Korean designer created graphical prints of black and white that have been softened with a monochromatic gradient of the two colors.

Black sheered voile was used as an overlay to a white mini skirt. Paired with a handkerchief style cape cum blouse with a shawl neckline and fastened with a ribbon, it was truly modern with an alternative bent.

Off the shoulder balloon minis were given the same treatment of graphics, this time a soft print of the daisy flower in different shades of gray.

And if daywear was beautiful, eveningwear was just lovely as sarong style gowns were given fractal prints of circles that became flowers, or were laser cut at the hem to give it a quaint luxurious look.

One of the mainstays of the Paris season, Lie Sang Bong has been classified as an emerging designer for several seasons already. Pretty soon, like a butterfly coming out of a chrysalis, Lie Sang Bong will be known as one of the forces in high street fashion.
