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
