李 青如

Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts

I’m a third-year undergraduate student majoring in Fashion Design at LuXun Academy of Fine Arts, located in Shenyang, Liaoning Province. Ranking top of my class in overall academic performance, I have participated in a host of fashion design competitions and formed my distinctive aesthetic and insights into design styles. During my college years, I also took part in multiple entrepreneurship and practical projects under the guidance of my tutors, delivering outstanding outcomes. My key experiences and achievements are as follows: I was awarded the First Prize at the China Packaging Creative Design Competition on August 25, 2024. From July 2023 to February 2024, I participated in a cultural relic restoration research project at Liaoning Provincial Museum, focusing on ancient costumes and bedding artifacts of the Qing Dynasty unearthed in Kazuo County. In February 2025, as part of the team from the School of Textile Dyeing, Garment and Art Design, I contributed to the primary and secondary school uniform design project for Shenyang Yasidanni Garment Co., Ltd.

《浮影镂章》Etched Verses of Drifting Shades

Category: Apparel

Competitions: China Mainland

本作品以中国传统皮影戏为灵感,将皮影镂空叙事美学转化为时装语言。采用双层切割层次皮革,外层复刻皮影暖调质感,内层呼应皮影牛皮肌理,激光雕刻还原纹样细节。高立领收腰廓形,硬挺皮革塑造利落轮廓,镂空结构注入轻盈呼吸感,实现非遗美学与现代剪裁的碰撞,让 传统皮影的叙事性在服装中新生。 Inspired by traditional Chinese shadow puppetry, this work transforms the art form’s hollowed-out narrative aesthetics into fashion language. It uses double-layer cut-out leather: the outer layer reproduces the warm tones of shadow puppets, while the inner layer echoes the texture of puppet hides. Laser engraving restores the intricate patterns. The structured high collar and cinched waist create a sharp silhouette, balancing the leather’s rigidity with the lightness of cut-out details. Merging intangible cultural heritage with modern tailoring, the design brings the storytelling charm of shadow puppetry to lifein wearable form.
