* Mods please advice on the title as well. It wasn't an official launch I'm sure because he's based elsewhere and was probably just invited to showcase at Singapore Fashion Festival 2008.

Lovely ... I love those seaweed details and that flowing brownish chiffon top reminds me of the ancient Chinese goddess images ...

Thanks for posting his work here
for the first time

I think the foliage is interesting too
Could develop into his signature

I do wish he played with other elements
It's the only thing that stands out
but I also love the ribbing / lines in this white shirt http://i272.photobucket.com/albums/jj175/butbeautiful/01QIUH-03Runway-208.jpg
