This fashion collection is inspired by an imagined journey to a Chinese garden in outer space, reflecting my nostalgia for my hometown Hangzhou and my fascination with the universe. The collection aims to convey a romantic, futuristic, and elegant atmosphere through my design languages.



Drawing on the philosophy of Chinese gardens, which emphasizes the co-existence of humans and nature, as well as the imaginary, I incorporated elements such as architecture, rocks, water, and plants that are commonly seen in Chinese gardens and imagine their different forms in an outer space context. Using draping, wiring, crocheting, 3D modeling, and other techniques, I tried to bring these elements to life in tangible substances.



The collection is designed for individuals who appreciate the beauty of nature and the mysteries of the universe, and who seek to express their personal emotions and imagination through fashion. The fusion of Chinese garden and outer space motifs will create a unique and visually striking aesthetic that is both futuristic and grounded in tradition.



Join me on this journey to escape reality and explore the beauty of an imagined world.
