Image: With the experience of studying Greek and Roman classic sculptures, it is easy to notice the celebration of nudity has always been the topic of sculptures. I started to question what if we create a collection inspired by sculpture.

Image: There are three directions to my collection. One of them is inspired by performing art and the shape of the dancers' movements. Martha Graham is well-known as a pioneer dancer who created many dramatic movements in ballet dance. Her works dive into intensive movements and emotional expression. I am always interested in the potential of our bodies, which to me, has a sculptural vibrancy.

Image: Lastly, I was hoping that one of the looks could draw inspiration from a famous sculpture. I end up choosing Venus de Milo as my muse. By exploring the silhouette and draping fabrics, I've also added a modern element with bones echos with my third direction of the collection, modern sculptures.
