MAI NGUYỄN THỊ THANH

Ton Duc Thang University

I was born and raised in Vietnam – a land that has deeply shaped my love for culture, people, and the beauty of life. From a young age, I was drawn to drawing and captivated by the world of colors and forms. This passion for aesthetics gradually grew, becoming the driving force behind my decision to pursue fashion design. To me, fashion is more than just clothing – it is a living art form. Every creation I make, whether it's garments, handbags, or accessories, reflects a blend of personal emotion and the desire to share beauty with others. I believe that a good design doesn’t just please the eyes – it sparks emotion, expresses identity, and tells a unique story. Along this creative journey, I always remind myself that “Failure is the mother of success.” Every setback has become a valuable lesson, helping me grow stronger and more resilient in my craft. My aspiration is to bring beauty – not only in appearance but also in spirit – closer to people. I hope my designs can be felt, experienced, and shared, making life just a bit more beautiful and meaningful through every piece I create.
