Pimpisa Sureesarakorn

Chulalongkorn University

Hi, I’m Mae-Mae Pimpisa Sureesarakorn or Meixin Lee, a second-year fashion student at the Faculty of Fine and Applied Arts, Chulalongkorn University, Thailand. I have been interested in fashion from a young age, starting from simple activities like drawing outfits and creating imaginary characters through clothing, as well as playing “dress-up” and pretend shop with friends. These early experiences gradually shaped the way I see fashion not only as clothing, but as a form of storytelling and self-expression. My design perspective is strongly rooted in contrast and duality. I am drawn to the relationship between opposing emotions and aesthetics, such as cute and dark, soft and strong, or innocence combined with subtle discomfort. I find these contradictions interesting because they reflect how layered and complex human emotions can be. I enjoy translating them into visual forms that can be worn and experienced.

The Little Red Riding Wolf

Category: Footwear

Competitions: Thailand

Inspired by Little Red Riding Hood, this collection reinterprets the fairy tale through a reversed perspective, where innocence becomes a form of danger and the wolf emerges as a misunderstood protector. The contrast between sweetness and threat is translated into contemporary fashion accessories. The collection is inspired by the idea that many fairy tales are often distorted versions of reality, where traditional stories assign fixed roles of innocence and villainy, shaping our understanding of good and evil from childhood. But what if these roles were never absolute? What if the wolf was not the villain, but a misunderstood protector, and Little Red Riding Hood the true antagonist? By questioning these fixed narratives, the collection explores role reversal and moral ambiguity. It reimagines familiar childhood imagery through a contrasting and conceptual lens, transforming innocence into something unsettling while reframing the so-called villain as a symbol of vulnerability. Through this reinterpretation, the work challenges perception, identity, and the duality between appearance and truth.
