I'm Japanese. I've been studying Chinese since I was in high school, and I am currently studying abroad in Taiwan. I am studying fashion design and merchandising at a university in Taiwan. I have loved cute things and fashion since I was a child. I think fashion is like magic that fills people's hearts and makes them very rich.
Combining leather and different materials, I designed a "pretty" bag that adults will want to carry even as they get older. As people get older, many feel reluctant to own very cute things, but fashion is free and it's wonderful to be able to wear what you love. I think that cute colors are red and white, so I based the design on those two colors. I also incorporated check patterns, ribbons, and yarn, as these are items that express cuteness. I also wanted to incorporate sophisticated elements, so I used curved red leather and crimson beads. The ribbon is designed with elegance using gold leather.
