TWO GENERATIONS, ONE VISION
Since 1997, Clara Sunwoo and her daughter, Roseann Sunwoo, have worked together to create timeless designs that fuse classic styles with a modern edge. The Clara Sunwoo collection combines two generations of fashion expertise.
Each piece is tailored to drape softly focusing on precision and fit. Our signature soft stretch knit fabric conforms to your natural shape for an effortlessly flattering fit. We create custom prints and patterns to make every outfit memorable.
We believe that you shouldn’t have to sacrifice fashion for comfort so we’ve created fabrics that are breathable, light-weight, and extremely soft to the touch. Many of the women we dress are world class travelers so our fabrics are wrinkle-free, washable, and pack friendly.
Revamp your wardrobe and experience Clara Sunwoo.
Our Mission
Our goal is to have women not just look but experience and feel edgy, empowered and beautiful. We are a cross generation, ageless lifestyle brand. We make it a point to have every piece we design fit right so you feel amazing. Every design we create must be wrinkle free, travel friendly, and effortless. Feeling chic and put together is just as important as looking the part.
At Clara Sunwoo, we make clothing that’s just like youstrong, feminine and everyday ready.
