Time Traveller

By Irene Mao

My original idea was to explore the changing aesthetics in Chinese culture. I started experimenting by mixing different clothes from different eras. I
understand that fashion can represent culture. Nowadays traditional
clothes are circling back within the community; people choose to wear them to show their own interests. I wanted to personify each era and capture what it would be like if they were all in one room together. I juxtaposed traditional and ancient dress from the Han and Tang Dynasties with clothing from the 1920’s and modern streetwear.
