- Research
- This Collection of idea is telling designer personality story, who is She. During her childhood, She really love princess stuff, all pink. When She grew up, She fell that reality life isn't like childhood princess story. So designer changed her mind, what kind of story can mix this collection. She research her family background culture, history, her country society problem, bring them mix together and become < Broken Sovereign>
- Inspiration
- Ideas develop more innovative structures and shapes to the collection through draping.The pursuit of perfect silhouette from the East & mixes with Western Outfits to creations evolve from colors to lines, from elegance to grandeur. The bamboo print design & drawn by me represent CHOR 9 BAI TIAN GONG FESTIVAL As Malaysian Chinese Hokkien, this day is important for Hokkien community as during that time, the survivors managed to escaped the village at night and hide themselves among the bamboo.
