Spirited Away

The muse of this collection is my best friend, but she has left me and living in another beautiful world now. The Spirited Away is her favourite movie and also is the inspiration of this collection. Based on this movie, I use the Japanese traditional style of fashion and architecture as the main theme and combined with Victorian style. Keep a silhouette of Kimono’s simple style and add the details’ design with laces and ruffles. Moreover, felting technique has been used on the decoration, and make the garments to a simple and lovely style. My friend likes the heroine in this movie, and this is also what I want to show: “Never forget who you are, and always keep a pure and brave heart”
