Jiayi Che’s collection, "Marginalia," is a visual narrative that traverses the realms of late medieval to early Renaissance Western historical clothing. Inspired by the vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and captivating textures of this bygone era, Che presents a captivating juxtaposition. The chaotic nature of the period finds unexpected harmony within her collection, drawing the viewer into a world that blurs the lines between tradition and modernity.



The metaphorical cornerstone of "Marginalia" is Che's creation of her own "Garden of Earthly Delights." Within this realm, her distinctive characters come to life, each donning ensembles that challenge the norms of femininity and historical fashion. A symphony of elements unfolds, weaving diversity into the fabric of each look. It's a nod to her own journey of self-discovery and defiance against the conformities she encountered.
