Story behind Yuna's lil black dress

Logan, designer of 'MAG&LOGAN' appeared on tvN(a Korean cable TV network)’s talk show “Brunch” on Febuary 28, 2011.  Logan told the viewers the story behind Yuna’s “little black dress.”

As we all know, Yuna was selected as one of TIME World’s Most Influential in 2010, ranking second in the Hero area.  'MAG&LOGAN' is the brand of the dress that Yuna wore to the TIME 100 gala.

Logan said that most of the suggestions for the dress were made by Yuna herself.
He said that Yuna expressed that she wanted the dress to be black, and not too flashy considering the current situation in Korea (sinking of the ROKS Cheonan,
a South Korean Navy ship, sunk near Baengnyeong Island in the Yellow Sea (March 26, 2010) resulting in the death of 46 sailors.).  She also asked for the dress to capture the image of her Olympic short program, 007.

“It’s amazing that someone so young could be that wise and considerate,” said Logan.
“That’s why she is so loved,” agreed Ms. Paek.

The result was a fun, youthful yet classy and elegant little black dress that suited the event and Yuna perfectly.

Fans were delighted to hear the story behind Yuna’s dress. There had been speculation that the dress had been a personally tailored dress due to its design being reminiscent of her Bond girl short program costume. It turns out that it was! They we also touched by her thoughtfulness in being so considerate. 

 The dress was inspired by Yuna's James Bond costume (above). CLICK HERE for more pics of that costume. CLICK HERE for the vid of her performance.
