What are your major influences or aesthetics?(Aesthetically speaking) to create a design
conceived by conceptual simplicity exhibiting structural complexity
What
is your biggest fear? The only thing we have to fear about is fear itself!
What is your dream country to visit? Europe
What was the last dream you remember? Funny, I dreamt of seeing a huge pile of poop in my bathroom, too bad I wasn’t able to touch the poop coz I woke up immediately after. You know what they say, it is good omen to see and touch poop in your dreams!

How did you start what you are doing? I’ve tried everything from singing, acting, dancing, painting and so on, but designing and using the medium of fabric was closest to my heart since I've always done designing / sketching on some capacity when I was young. I guess my mom played a huge role in my pursuit of becoming a designer, I’d watch her every time she would sew curtains at home, repair my clothes and the like.
When I was 17, I designed costumes for the SLU-LHS glee club, bagging the best costume award. That's where and how my fashion career came about. Fast forward to 2014, I’ve just recently accomplished my third collection entitled Chimera.
Favorite
Fashion Icon: Alexander McQueen
If
you will be featured in any magazine, what it would be: Nothing in particular, so long as I’d be featured, that’s good
enough for me. *wink
What’s
your most memorable fashion moment so far: None as of the moment, it is still being written
What’s your favorite fashion city and why? I’d say London. Because of its diversity, London upholds the reputation as the cradle of fashion eccentricity.

Whom
do you want to dress, style, or photograph in the future?Too many to mention! But this may sound cliché, Lady Gaga would be
on top of the list! J Let’s
not forget about Daphne Guinness, Tilda Swinton too!
Who
else do you want to collaborate with in the future? I always believe that it is in collaboration that
the true nature of art is revealed, so anyone who is willing / agrees to
collaborate with me is very welcome to do so!
Advice
for up and coming creative on your field: Stay professional. Take care of your career, try
your best to be able to get far in the business and improve aesthetically /
personally. Keep your feet on the ground and remember you are only as good as
your last work! Always make room for knowledge, try to learn as you go.
Fashion
Mantra: Fashion is a declaration of your own freedom.
Aside from what you are doing now, what else you want to do/achieve? Well there are a lot of things I want to achieve but we’ve just started 2014 so let’s see how everything works out. 2014, surprise me! Right now, I am at the early stages of my 4th collection as we speak.
One word to describe yourself: DEVIANT!
