Fashion, once merely known as something related to clothing, now becomes a significant symbol carrier of self-expression and self-realization. In these three collections, I want to use my works to show people a new way of communication with both others and them. 

The third project Project Me is the most representative collection for me. In this project, I chose the movie Cries and Whispers as my inspiration to talk about the ambivalent feelings in different kinds of relationships. This movie, set in the end of the 19th century, is about three sisters and a servant who struggle with the terminal cancer of one of the sisters. The servant is close to her, while the other two sisters confront their emotional distance from each other. Nowadays, everyone is too eager to be loved by others, but fail to know how to express their feelings. Ultimately, their relationship tends to be alienated and they start to blame each other. There is an inspirational scene in this movie where the main character (Thuli) takes off layers of her clothes and changes into pajamas, which is like us being wrapped in layers of constraint and finally can be real to face ourselves. Internal hiding and external extrusion are the main points of my design, so I decided to use layers of fabric to represent the external pressure and use the design of outside underwear to represent the real self that should be shown. I hope people can reflect on their own way of self-expression through my design and start to be brave to show the real self.

對我而言，服裝不僅僅是一個跟衣服有關的詞語，現在也變成了一個人們用來自我表達和自我實現的重要媒介。我希望通過這三個系列的服裝作品向人們展示一種人與人之間的嶄新的交流方式。

在我所有的作品中最具有代表性的是第三個項目《Project Me》。在這個項目中，我選擇了電影《呼喊與細語》作為我的靈感來探討人與人之間矛盾的情感關系。這個電影發生在19世紀末，講述了三姐妹和一個仆人的故事。其中有一個姐妹得了癌癥晚期，仆人很細心的照料她，但相反的，她的姐妹們卻和她保持距離。正如同現在的人們一樣，每個人都非常渴望被愛卻不懂得如何去表達自己的情感。隨之而來的是她們的關系越走越遠，甚至開始彼此責怪。這個電影有一幕最令我印象深刻：主人公Thuli一層層的脫掉自己的外衣換上睡衣，就像我們脫去一層層的偽裝最終直面真實的自己。因此，我選取’內部隱藏’和’外部擠壓’作為我的主要靈感元素，并通過面料堆疊和內衣外穿的形式來表達這種感覺。我希望人們在看過我的作品后能夠反思自己的情感表達方式，并勇于直面真實的自己。
