Mijeong Park
We have focused on reducing our environmental impact by creating clothes that can be worn for years, not seasons.
Mijeong Park is a foundational wardrobe collection built on classic tailoring and modern details.
We make carefully considered clothing meant to be worn for a long time. Our customers are creatives and non-creatives alike, from their 20s all the way through to their 60s, and we take pride in creating comfortable, elevated staples that support them at work and in life beyond it.
Mijeong Park is a Korean-American designer based in Los Angeles. She attended the prestigious Ewha Womans University in Seoul, studying fashion design and art history. In 2015 she went on a simple but life-changing family trip that permanently shifted the way she lived and approached her work. With a newfound understanding of minimalism, and after multiple years working in varying design studios, she launched her namesake label in the spring of 2015. Today she continues to focus her work on creating comfortable, timeless, design-forward essentials for both herself and her customers.
We believe that clothing should be made to last and require as little care as possible. Over the years we’ve tested garments made of wholly natural fabrics, and what we’ve found is that they require more care—more washing, more ironing, more dry cleaning—while also having a shorter lifespan. As such, we use a blend of natural and synthetic fibers in our designs, and have focused on reducing our environmental impact by creating clothes that can be worn for years, not seasons.
Additionally we have simplified our labels and packaging, eliminating the use of gift boxes, pins, and other decorative trimmings. While we understand that elaborate packaging has come to be expected from designer brands such as ours, keeping our packaging minimal allows us to further reduce waste and pass savings on to our customers.
