About

I love to explore different creative fields, which is not limited to the cutting-edge technology of digital fashion, but also covers the traditional weaving art. Although these two fields seem to be different, they both show infinite creative possibilities and space for self-expression.

My design philosophy starts with simple patterns, which I transform into visually striking garments through innovative combinations and material use. I believe that even the most basic elements can produce stunning results if bolding enough to experiment with different combinations and techniques. Whether it’s manipulating materials and shapes digitally, or creating textures through hand knitting, I aim to blend these diverse elements to showcase a fresh perspective on fashion.

I'm not just looking to challenge existing fashion norms but also eager to explore more possibilities.

My collection "LIFE AFTER DEATH UNTIL ETERNITY" is a dialogue bridging past, present, and future. Inspired by Chinese museums, it connects ancient relics to modern life. Ceramics, paintings, and clothing tell tales of bygone eras, symbolizing life's complexity. Knitting intertwines culture and fate, crafting diverse garments with a common thread. Through familiar techniques used in unconventional ways, I weave a narrative of time's continuum. This collection urges us to treasure every moment, recognizing our inevitable place in history.
