ZOEHONG

The first belts were conceived not to hold up pants but because I wanted to cover a multitude of fitting sins like whale tails, coin slots, muffintops, plumber's cracks, VPL, whatever you want to call them. Then I just continued exploring shapes and embellishments.

About the Designer

ZOEHONG's picture

Zoe is based in San Francisco, CA, United States. She studied at Otis College of Art & Design. Her collections are produced in United States.

Zoë Hong the brand was conceived from the concept of future heirlooms. Imagine pieces that are beautifully designed and crafted, unique and personal, quality pieces that with proper care can withstand the test of time, fads, wear and tear and become heirlooms. We make clothes and accessories meant to be worn, and meant to last. For that we use the finest materials and construction techniques.
Zoë Hong the person was born in Seoul, Korea and grew up in Anchorage, Alaska, schlepping dog-eared copies of fashion magazines on family fishing trips. She moved to Los Angeles after high school to attend Otis College of Art and Design, where she studied under amazing talents as varied as Bob Mackie and Michelle Mason. Upon graduation, she spent the next few years working as a designer in Los Angeles, and then later in San Francisco, until she decided to open her own business.
In 2005, Zoë won "Fresh Blood", a design competition in San Francisco. The following year, she won the Gen Art / Perrier "Bubbling Under" Design Competition.
