My thesis collection is my way of exploring my personal experience with coming out and gender expression. My collection talks about who I was, who I am, and who I want to be. I wanted to be nostalgic for the past while celebrating the present, and dream about the future.

I aim to become a designer who can design ,cut, fit, and construct all by myself because I believe that a person who owns many sets of skills is able to make better design work.
The collection is inspired by the corrupted church during the Middle Age when priests used religion as tools to gain wealth. All fabrics choices are either pure silk or silk-wool blend. All garments are done by 50% machine sewing and 50% hand sewing.

Fragmented Keepsakes I Found in the Attic: Look 2

My thesis is inspired by our disposition to hold on to objects that have sentimental value to us. Our things may be crushed or falling apart in storage, but we are unable to part with them because of emotional connections. Victorian silhouettes and aesthetic expressions of sentimentality are combined with deconstructed and distorted elements. Constructed with ample handwork and utilizing secondhand materials in embellishments, the desire to hold onto our things forever (despite their decay) is displayed.

Celebration of Materials and Craftsmanship

My intention in my design is to elevate timeless styles and emphasize the quality of materials itself. Timeless and restrained styles are the keywords for my sustainable approach instead of making something eye-catching.

Eruzlie Freda is a Loa, a spirit associated with femininity and fluidity. Her patronage consists of love, beauty, dance, and finer things. It all blends to build a sense of expression and femininity I see within myself.

I always want to figure out who I am under this body that everyone can see. I believe we all have deeply hidden lust, greed, ambition, goodness. This is like imagining dissecting myself, from the middle out, to see what is hiding. When I try to see through myself, I feel I can only see a looming shape, like a shadow. It is always changing and I may never figure it out, but I think this is very interesting and I want to express this feeling in my design.

Acceptance focuses on empowering women in their body, curves and all. This elevated RTW collection focuses on reshaping the mindset of how our bodies are viewed. The garments accentuate parts of the body that emphasize the image of a voluptuous woman.

A fragile bloom is a metaphor for the transient beauty of nature, evoking a sense of both ephemerality and exquisite fragility. Drawing inspiration from the art of ikebana, the collection embraces the beauty of imperfection and asymmetry, with each piece reflecting the unique and imperfect beauty of the natural world. Each piece of clothing in this collection is carefully crafted to reflect this delicate balance—with feathery dressed denim, layered delicate lace, and decaying floral motifs.

Inspired by the words in my great-great-grandmother’s book comparing her life to a tapestry of memories, “Sentimental Fool” explores the concepts of sentimentality and memory through the use of traditional couture handcraft techniques and softened historical silhouettes. Screen printing and embroidery are utilized in order to memorialize various quotes from the book, while many details, such as lines and tucks, serve as symbols of the repetition and simultaneous inconsistency of memories.

Recollection of My Childhood is inspired by clothes hanging on the clothesline between the trees in our yard. I grew up with a family of 13 in a huge house. On laundry day, colorful clothes were piled up in baskets and a variety of styles, textures, patterns, and sizes were hanging on the clothesline. One could get a glimpse of the family's taste by looking at the clothes fluttering on the clothesline. This collection creates unique looks through unexpected combinations.

Self-Fulfillment

People have a desire to achieve self-fulfillment. Sometimes, although they want to achieve it, they cannot do so because of their current circumstances. They may feel separation and frustration. In an ideal environment, people try to attain what they want. That is human instinct. However, they are stuck between fear and freedom. Past memories can be a fundamental basis for future self-fulfillment, and it seems that memories are closely connected with each other. In short, self-fulfillment and memory are interconnected.
Macy's Capsule Collection

Coming from conservative Korean culture, this collection questions what is appropriate and what is inappropriate to wear, based on gender stereotypes. The collection is inspired by the artist Hannah Wilke, whose work is focused on female genitalia, which is considered the most inappropriate part of a woman’s body to be exposed. By exposing different areas of the body, we begin to question the concept of what is appropriate/inappropriate and what is acceptable/unacceptable in Korean society.

Unity is a collection that blends the elements that society has constructed that distinguish us by race, culture, gender, and social class. These elements begin to morph into nothingness to remind society that we are all one, one consciousness, but with different perspectives.

Having been raised on the seaside, it felt almost inevitable that the collection would translate the natural forms I was surrounded by: waves, dunes, surf breaks. Through constant experimentation with juxtaposing mediums, the garments move with the same intensity, twisting and turning against the body in an endless tango of structure/collapse. I merge the familiar shapes of the sea to make garments that look as if they were floating in some otherworldly place, capturing the body in an intimate way.

Sardines by the Handful is influenced by endless, shoe-free summers growing up along the Costa Brava, bathing in the sea, and spending whole days and nights outside. This collection reflects the playfulness and freedom we have as children, translated through color blocking, whimsical pattern pieces, and flirty silhouettes. I created the feeling of buoyancy that one feels in the ocean through my choice of textures and material, with brightness and a pursuit of pleasure.
