At 2026 FW Seoul Fashion Week held Feb 3–8 at Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP), Korean brand LIE (Life Is an Expression) unveiled a ski mountaineering collection in collaboration with premium outdoor label Insus. The collection blends high-performance outdoor fabrics—windproof, waterproof, and mesh—with refined ready-to-wear silhouettes: slim, ski-suit-inspired layering, structured voluminous outerwear, and dynamic curved and straight paneling suggesting speed. The palette drew from snowy alpine landscapes (matte off-white, black, gray, brown) with deep forest greens and navy as restrained accents. Crafts and sustainability were highlighted through macramé techniques and upcycled materials by artist Jeong Yoon-hee, emphasizing both craftsmanship and eco-consciousness. Designer Lee Cheong-cheong described the line as modular and technical—bags, functional accessories, and apparel—offering a new high-end athleisure aesthetic that marries precision functionality with romantic, dynamic silhouettes.
