Monologue

Monologue is a transformable fashion collection that provides portable private spaces for the wearer. Each garment holds lightweight, expandable structures that open to form a personal shelter and close again when not needed. A dress becomes a sleeping bag, jackets include built-in face coverings, and tops expand into tents. The structures are inspired by the engineering of children's pop-up books and are built with tailoring materials such as neoprene, silk-wool blends, cotton twill and horsehair. The linings are printed with hand-painted, calming imagery in monochrome tones.

The Metamorphosis

The Metamorphosis is a handcrafted garment inspired by the ideas of mutation and evolution. The design is based on exaggerated animal skeletons shaped to fit the human body. The resulting forms suggest a cross image of human and animal. The garment is made of biodegradable plastic, leather and hair. The plastic is scrap material that is hot pressed with hair to form a fabric. The leather and hair are recycled from studio leftovers and barbershop waste. Arm, hand, front, back and foot parts can be removed and reassembled for easy wear and later replacement.

Alternative

Alternative is a genderless fashion collection of fourteen items, including tops, bottoms and outerwear. The collection is inspired by ancient unisex garments from Western and Eastern cultures, such as the Greek chiton, the Roman tunic, the Chinese shenyi and the Thai jongkraben. Each item uses flexible connections, materials and folding, so the fit can be adjusted to different bodies. The garments are presented on male and female bodies. The intent is not to hide the body but to blur fixed dress boundaries and support self-identity.

Night Tales

Feiyang had a passion for all the dark things. The night creatures; the witches and the forest. She found them mysterious and incredibly inspiring. This collection was inspired by a series of dark fairytales. Feiyang wrote her own stories then created weird, enchanting characters. She designed garments that fit the protagonists' characteristic. Instead of thinking of possible garment shapes first, Feiyang derived lines, forms and texture from nature, like butterfly wings or tree barks, arrange them in various ways until certain forms grow naturally out, which can be applied to the human body.

Light

This collection transforms the idea of Light in both physical and psychological aspects. The quality of brightness is emphasized by manipulating contrast of different low saturated tones and colors. Light fabrics are used to provide gentle and comfortable feelings. Creative structures and detachable pockets, lapels, and strapped corset, allow the looks to be more variable. Garments can reflect the interactions between the wearers' psychological emotions and their physical environment. The goal is to encourage the wearers to express their own aesthetics and styles fearlessly.

Dress with Wrap On

Metallic Dual

This dual purpose dress from India stands out in first look as it combines Gold and Silver beautifully. Claimed as an amalgam of resort and party wear, this dress can actually practical for its claim. The added on wrap is flexible to use but the joining attachment could have been better. It is evident that the design is inspired from precious metals and that philosophy is justified in use as well as look.
