Hello, my name is Trần Thị Thảo, and I am a fifth-year student at the Faculty of Fashion Design at Hanoi University of Industrial Fine Arts. With a deep passion for fashion and sustainable design, I am always eager to explore new creative ideas and innovative approaches to garment making. Throughout my studies, I have gained valuable experience in fashion illustration, pattern making, and textile selection, as well as developing designs that balance aesthetics and functionality.

"Diện Ý" is a harmonious blend of traditional artistry and contemporary beauty, inspired by the intricate brushstrokes found on Peking Opera masks. Each bag in the collection is more than just a fashion accessory—it is a storytelling masterpiece, conveying emotions, meanings, and the rich cultural essence of Chinese theatrical art. With its name, "Diện Ý", the brand aims to honor the vibrant colors and expressive intensity of Peking Opera characters, transforming them into exquisite designs that are both artistic and in tune with modern aesthetics. These are not just handbags; they are a fusion of tradition and personal identity, connecting heritage with individuality.
