She wishes to make her collection "one of a kind" and wants Reborn Process to develop into a multi brand shop. Her boutique is located in SoHo, New York.
Designer
Hyoni collaborated with a Korean fashion brand called Love Cat. She designed bags under Hyoni-line while she traveled back and forth from New York to Seoul, Korea. This limited edition bag, which was released in September 2011, was popular as a 'must have it item' because of its chic and romantic design as well as its practical aspect in which one can either adjust the straps to different lengths, use another chain strap that comes with the bag, or even take all the straps off and use the bag as a clutch.
Also, it has been recently announced in April 2013 that Hyoni will collaborate with a Korean fashion brand called Lapalette to create a special line of handbags. Hyoni-designed bags are to be released on June 2013. Once released, Hyoni's new line can be purchased here: [1]
