YesStyle Sponsors Seoul Fashion Week F/W 2011

April 19, 2011 - PRLog -- Leading online fashion retailer YesStyle served as an official sponsor to Seoul Fashion Week F/W 2011 (SFW), an international fashion event held March 28th to April 2nd, 2011 in Seoul, Korea. YesStyle provided partial funding for the event as well as exclusive coverage on its fashion blog, The YesStylist (http://www.yesstyle.com/blog/). In covering and promoting SFW, YesStyle once again demonstrated its long-standing commitment to supporting Asian fashion and arts.

Seoul Fashion Week is a platform for emerging and international designers to showcase their collections. Supported by the Korean government, the event is run differently from similar events, with a four-program series separating emerging from established designers. This unique arrangement encourages foreign media and buyers to discover new talent, in addition to sampling the latest designs from established brands.

YesStyle has a strong history of actively supporting outstanding Asian talent in various creative industries, and the company's sponsorship of Seoul Fashion Week marks its continued support and promotion of Asian culture and fashion, "YesStyle is excited to sponsor this major event because it helps to promote Asian aesthetic and culture, and also young, emerging Korean designers on their way to achieving international recognition," said Joshua Lau, YesStyle's Founder and CEO.

The Seoul Fashion Week organizing committee expressed appreciation for YesStyle's sponsorship. "We are delighted to have YesStyle's cooperation and support for Seoul Fashion Week this season, as they highlight the latest in Asian trends and lifestyle to a global audience," said a committee representative. "We hold all our sponsorship partners in great regard, and hope that YesStyle finds this collaboration with Seoul Fashion Week to be as beneficial as their previous partnerships."

In addition to partial funding, YesStyle's sponsorship included exclusive coverage of the event, ranging from daily runway reports to backstage interview with designers, bringing the fashion week experience to its fans and customers worldwide. YesStyle also covered the previous season's SFW and plans to maintain a presence at the event in seasons to come.
