Are all your products made in south korea?

At Stefani Studio, we curate high-quality, designer clothing and accessories from independent designers across South Korea and East Asia.

While many of our products are designed and manufactured in South Korea, some of our products are produced in China. This is due to manufacturing or stock limitations in South Korea.

Additionally, we also sell products inspired by Korean fashion produced in other East Asian countries, such as China. These products are often produced in a variety of sizes and may be more frequently re-stocked.

We label these products as "Korean Style" to reflect their design inspiration. For specific manufacturing details, please refer to the product's tags or descriptions on our website.
