Chun-dam is a very good, very pricey Korean restaurant with with very good service. Some of the dishes are unique: the pickled white kimchi bosaam for instance, sweet potato shikhye, the beef "carpaccio". And some dishes are just surprisingly good: acorn jello panchan, and macaroni salad (yes, the macaroni salad).
Tonkotsu Yamada Ramen - Thin, wavy noodles with some resilience. The broth is flavorful without being overly salty - doesn't pack a huge punch on the first sip but is gentle enough to be enjoyable from start to finish. All the toppings were yummy (I do prefer my egg a bit more soft) but the Kakuni was my favorite (jello-y, unctuous).
The filigree sequins give this skirt the singularity of a snowflake
Check out loose, easy, wearable shapes. Sort of like a women's lib collection.
Lighweight wool with very minimal binding and structure.
I found the arm opening construction on this dress very elegant and innovative.
A tiny barely visible seam shows were a sliver of fabric was likely inserted into the skirt to create a fuller sweep.
I havn't gone into much detail regarding the garments because everything (and much more) can be found in the accompanying book, High Style. In particular, I bypassed a bulk of work on display by Worth and James.
A bonus bounty of fruit from the main museum collection.
