Modegeschichte
Founded in 1994 by the Kume family, the brand emerged within the Korean-Brazilian immigrant community in São Paulo. It played a significant role in transforming the Bom Retiro neighborhood into a central hub for South American wholesale fashion. The label’s history reflects the broader integration of East Asian entrepreneurship into Brazil’s textile industry. Its longevity illustrates the shift from small-scale manufacturing to established retail operations within the regional fashion landscape.
