Goodwood is delighted to reveal that Sohee Park, designer of Miss Sohee, is winner of this year’s Goodwood Talent in Fashion Award, in association with the British Fashion Council. Upon graduating from Central St Martins in 2020, Park’s debut collection catapulted her into global recognition. “The Girl in Full Bloom” featured sculptural, floral-inspired dresses in vivid, jewel-like colours and resulted in the fashion designer Christian Cowan inviting her to collaborate on looks for his show in New York. The following year, Sohee presented her own runway show during Milan Fashion Week, at the invitation of Dolce and Gabbana. Her designs have been worn by everyone from supermodels Naomi Campbell and Bella Hadid to Vice President Kamala Harris and many international pop stars, including Miley Cyrus, Cardi B and Ariana Grande.
