A conceptual narrative serves as the backbone for this collection, inviting you into an enchanted realm where a grand tea party is taking place beneath a wooded canopy. Arriving as a guest, you take your seat only to witness those around, all subjects of a vengeful monarch, beginning to transform after savouring their first sips of tea. The enchanted brew bewitches the queen’s subjects, all morphing into caricatures of their chosen tea flavour.
Each outfit in this collection, thus, imagines a fictional character’s unique interpretation of tea-party attire combined with hues and patterns carefully selected to reflect the aromatic flavours of various tea blends, imbuing a layer of sensory richness into each piece. This collection draws inspiration from Lolita fashion as its foundation whilst incorporating Ouji “boy-style” Lolita and other J-fashion influences to explore a variety of silhouettes
