Minju Kim won the first Next in Fashion 2020 prize.
The 33-year-old South Korean designer Minju Kim won Next in Fashion’s big prize with a Frida Kahlo-inspired collection.
“The competition was clinched for her after a tight 10 weeks when guest judge Eva Chen of Instagram said of her bridalwear, “I want to get married again just to wear this dress,” which came after she had won in Episode 2 for another wedding dress,” wrote newsweek.
