CUSP Designer Interview: Michelle Kim - MK2k
Look out Mary-Kate Olsen—there’s another MK on the Cusp. This one’s Michelle Kim, a Los Angeles-based designer who launched MK2K, her line of contemporary knits, in August 2006. Like the other MK, this MK knows how to layer. MK2K is full of fabulous drapey, soft wool and acrylic sweaters, tops, dresses and leggings. No word yet on how Kim takes her coffee.
