As an emerging feminist fashion designer, I believe that fashion is linked not only to aesthetics and myself. Fashion initially for me is about art, expressing, and illustrating. After 4 years of study in Parsons School of Design, I know fashion is more than just for me. I aim to find a bigger meaning of fashion that serves society and people’s needs that start from myself. Upon that, it gives useful meanings to garments who care about what I care about.

I love going to clubs but I found that women’s clubwear lacks functionality and sustainability. That is why I made this clubwear collection that has pockets for women, and found comfortable sporty materials with my fabric prints to make my clubwear more comfortable and easy to clean, and attractive. I am enthusiastic to design garments that are functional, sustainable, and beautiful.
