16.1 ONO

16.1 ONO

This season I drew inspiration from Africa, a country rich in culture and history and Yoko Ono, a persona that can ignite a whole industry. I came across several fascinating photos of Kenyan women and was amused with how the richness and details of their ornaments contrasted nicely with their clothing, which I find very similar to the Japanese design aesthetic, at least in terms of shape and proportion. As for Yoko Ono, I have always been captivated with her persona so it felt right for me to infuse her uniquely artistic mood in my collection.
