Heeyoung Yoo

University of Technology, Sydney (UTS)

I am a fashion design graduate from the University of Technology Sydney, and a designer who writes her story through every piece she creates. My work is deeply rooted in cultural identity, personal values, and the narratives that shape who we are. Whether inspired by tradition, memory, or emotion, my collections explore the ways fashion can speak without words—communicating history, belonging, and individuality. Through each project, I aim to blend technical craftsmanship with meaningful storytelling, creating designs that are not only wearable but emotionally resonant. I see clothing as an extension of the self, and as a designer, I’m committed to using fashion as a medium for reflection, connection, and expression.

Working with our partners at Arts Thread to develop lifelong learning and career opportunities for students of fashion and design. Our partnership provides the opportunity to compete on a world stage, participate in industry led workshops, set up an outstanding portfolio and gain access to the resources that will kickstart careers in fashion and design.
