Guan Yong Yi, Key // ‘Escaping’ Collection

SP : The design piece in the picture . Can you pls describe it. Your inspiration for this piece and the materials used. // 你可以說一下這相中作品嗎?你的主題、靈感和用上的物料等。
Key : My theme is ‘Escaping’, which means escaping from the reality and dream, trying to break the rules. I used  blue and orange as my main colors. Blue and orange represent the cruel world, and the passion of our dreams respectively. The black color is the dust of world. 90% of the outfits are made by wool and polyester yarns. The knitting makes use of the technique, stroll and trill relief.

我的主題是’逃避’,這意味著逃避現實和夢想,試圖打破規則。然後我用藍色和橙色作為主色。藍色和橙色分別代表殘酷的世界和我們夢想的熱情。黑色作為世界的塵埃。整個裝備的90%由羊毛和滌綸紗線製成。漫步和顫音浮雕使用的針織。

SP : Your favorite Fashion Designer. // 最喜歡的設計師是?
Key : My favorite fashion designer is Thom Browne. His design style has its own strong personality. I really appreciate his designs, which are very inspiring and a signature all his own.

我最喜歡的時裝設計師是Thom Browne,他的設計風格有他自己強烈的個性。我非常欣賞他的設計系列,這是非常鼓舞人心和標誌性的。

SP : What’s next for you?
Key : Being a fashion designer is the next step of my journey. After joining the Lenzing workshop, and Australia Merino wool trip, I am interested in knitwear now. I would like to expand my job’s scope, to include menswear and knitwear.

成為時裝設計師是我旅程的下一步。在加入Lenzing工作室和澳大利亞美利奴羊毛之旅後,我現在對針織品很感興趣。所以我想擴大我的工作品種,包括男裝和針織品。

2. Law Wing Suen, Kimmy // ‘The War At Home’ Collection

SP : The design piece in the picture . Can you pls describe it. Your inspiration for this piece and the materials used. // 你可以說一下這相中作品嗎?你的主題、靈感和用上的物料等。
Kimmy : This design is an attempt to give life to one of the darkest aspects of our society by portraying the cold, violent, and unachievable expectations of abusive homes.

The main material is organza and silk. It shows a slow and cold impression, like living under cold violence.

Slow materials combined with the borderless water-soluble sewing pattern. This reflects children living under pressure.

這種設計嘗試通過描繪對虐待性家園的冷漠,暴力和無法實現的期望,為社會最黑暗的方面之一賦予生命。

主要材料是透明硬紗和絲綢。它表現出一種緩慢而冷酷的印象,就像生活在寒冷的暴力之下一樣。

緩慢的材料與無序的水溶性縫紉圖案相結合。 它反映了生活在壓力下的兒童。

SP : Your favorite Fashion Designer. // 最喜歡的設計師是?
Kimmy : Craig Green is my favorite fashion designer. His design is simple, but each garment and collection has a strong personal signature. Also, his collections use a creative display style and expressions in different media.

Craig Green是我最喜歡的時裝設計師。 他的設計很簡單,但每件服裝和系列都有自己的特色。此外,他的系列採用創意展示風格在不同媒體中展示。

SP : What’s next for you? // 接下來有什麼計劃?
Kimmy : My future plan for the moment is to continue my learning career.

我現在的未來計劃是繼續我的學習生涯。
