MY NAME IS MEL… AND I’M THE EMPRESS DOWAGER

Interesting Fact: LUO was a surname of an Empress Dowager. The fact that am obsessed with gold and also intricate designs might be the reason.

Studying the the traditional, oriental look from the past while coming out with this concept. What stands out the most will be the circular elements that the Chinese believe in. To them, circular means longevity and also it represents full moon which actually defines the prosperity of the family (living forever as a whole). Inspired by the terms, i decided to come out with an ideation which actually flows as a whole while taking into consideration the circular elements.

Planning in progress:

Draft ideation: Playing with the circular elements and not forgetting the intricate elements and the jade feel which was usually used during the olden days.

Final Outcome

The final outcome consists of embroidery, fabric, beads, jade. It defines the traditional and oriental of the past with a touch of a modern look to it too. The circular elements was not forgotten during the ideation process for the final design.
