Shih Chien University

I'm currently a second-year student in the Department of Fashion Design and Management at Shih Chien University. I have a somewhat introverted personality and tend to observe details in daily life, a trait that influences my design style. I appreciate simplicity, but I don't strive for monotony. Instead, I add detail and variation to seemingly ordinary things, allowing my work to maintain a subtle yet impactful presence. For me, design is a gradual process of accumulation, finding the most suitable expression through continuous experimentation and refinement. I pay attention to lines, proportions, and material relationships in everyday life, and these observations become the nourishment for my creations. I don't pursue an overly flamboyant style; instead, I hope my work can be seen in the details, allowing viewers to gradually discover the ingenuity within. I'm still in the learning and exploration phase, hoping to continue developing my own design language and create simple yet memorable works in the future.

SHAPE IN FLOW

Category: Apparel

Competitions: Taiwan Region

I want to capture a moment between order and disorder before the form is stable. Let the fabric no longer be just a medium to cover the body, but be free from the limitations of gravity and functionality, and transform into a flowing structure. With "unfinished form" as the core, through large areas of asymmetrical surfaces and stacks, it expresses a picture that seems to be condensed in the wind. The silhouette frees between the fabric and the sculpture, making the body a fulcrum rather than a subject. I deliberately weaken the boundaries of traditional clothing, allowing the fabric to appear somewhere between soft and hard—both like a moment blown up by the wind and a frozen image of time being suspended.
