ENSIGHT DESIGN LAB Co., Ltd.
Ensight Design Lab Co., Ltd. is a Seoul-based fashion company founded in 2013, which launched THEILMA in the 2017 Fall/Winter season. THEILMA is a timeless hybrid brand rooted in ILMA, the Finnish word for air. Guided by Rilke's "Live the Questions," the brand reconstructs structured tailoring and restrained silhouettes through a deconstructive approach, building its own sculptural language through layering. THEILMA operates flagship stores in Seochon, Dosan and Pangyo, is carried by 22 major department stores and malls in Korea, and sells through its own online store and leading platforms. Internationally, it is stocked by select shops in Thailand, Vietnam, Russia and beyond, and has held a pop-up at Parco Shibuya in Tokyo.
