Inspired by Dream of the Red Chamber and traditional Chinese gardens, this series explores themes of fate, impermanence, and cyclical existence. Circular silhouettes reference the novel’s symbolism of stones—unyielding yet spiritual—and the recurring motif of return. The garments evoke garden rocks as silent witnesses to solitude and emotion, while the interplay of structure and softness reflects the tension between societal expectation and inner freedom. Through sculptural forms and textured fabrics, the collection reinterprets literary and cultural heritage with a contemporary lens, offering a meditation on identity, transformation, and the quiet power of remembrance.
