Fashion Designer Gemma Kahng was born and raised in Korea. She came to the U.S. at age 14 and graduated from the Art Institute of Chicago with a degree in Fashion Design. After a short hiatus, Gemma has re-launched her collection to great acclaim from editors, buyers, press and celebrities like Julia Roberts and Christy Turlington. Her designs have made frequent appearances in the editorials of leading fashion publications such as Women’s Wear Daily, Zink, and The New York Times.

Gemma’s design aesthetic pays homage to both classic and modern history and culture, incorporating rich legacies of style in her unique and beautiful collections. Her innovative use of fabrications, such as wool, lace, satin, twill, silk and etc., contribute to her one of a kind garments and silhouette.
