Korean designer brand Marknull's SS23 collection is gaining attention for its innovative reinterpretation of angelic motifs. While angels are typically portrayed as beings who have lost their wings, Marknull captures the moment when humans gain wings and become angels. This inverted perspective embodies a narrative of ascension rather than fall, acquisition rather than loss.
The collection's most striking element is its choice of material. While angel wings are conventionally rendered in feathers, Marknull presents wings crafted entirely in crochet. The golden mesh tank top and oversized wing structures extending from the shoulders merge traditional craft techniques with avant-garde silhouettes. The intricate lacework creates a halo effect that frames the body in celestial light.
Crochet as a medium offers lightness, breathability, and structural strength while carrying the warmth of handwork. This visualizes the designer's philosophy of exploring boundaries between divinity and humanity, transcendence and materiality. The golden knitwear contrasted against black leather shorts emphasizes dualities of sacred and secular, softness and strength. Heavy-soled boots ground the ethereal upper body in urban reality.
Marknull's collection translates religious iconography into contemporary fashion language while expanding the possibilities of craft techniques in high fashion. Humans as beings who gain rather than lose wings – this message of positive transformation seems to symbolize hope and renewal in the post-pandemic era. The brand's experimental approach positions Korean design at the forefront of conceptual fashion innovation.
