Kim Phan Interview On Her Yumi Kim Line

Kim Phan, the designer of the Yumi Kim line, keeps the words "fun and flirty" in mind when working her feminine, predominantly silk-based creations. Phan has been designing clothes since childhood, and uses her love for florals, prints and vibrant colors to make her pieces stand out.

For her new line, Phan looked to the 70s. "I played with a bit more of a mod twist," Phan told Uinterview exclusively. "You can see a lot of geometric shapes. We also have a bit of a tribute to the disco era." An animal lover, Phan named the line after her precious pet Yorkie, Yumi. "When I got [Yumi], that's when the line was born. That's why it was just natural, it made sense. My partnership with her… I love her, she brings me so much joy."

Phan opened her first Yumi Kim flagship store on New York City's Lower East Side in 2008, followed by an Upper East Side location. Today, Yumi Kim stores can be found in other boutiques, including 3NY stores.
