About

I am in my final year of studying fashion design, fueled by a passion for storytelling that I strive to share with the world through my creative process and designs. In today's fast-paced modern life, I aim to remind people to embrace their uniqueness and convey meaningful messages through my work. I am always eager to explore new creative possibilities and integrate various accessibilities into fashion. My vision is straightforward: to inspire creativity and create a positive impact on the world through design.

This project was inspired by the film Poor Things, specifically focusing on its main character Bella. I aimed to explore her character development and her journey of self-exploration as she first came out to the world. The design incorporates elements of Korean traditional accessories like Daengi and Norigae, traditionally used by young girls in the Joseon Dynasty. Additionally, it utilizes a traditional knotting method called 'Dorae' for crafting details.
