Fresh Start




As you all now I have now closed my store! As this is a little sad as it was such a big part of my life, it's also such an exciting new start for me. Connecting with you all of you and leaving a small mark in the industry has been the best experience! In this fast paced fashion industry I thank all of you who have supported me and had my back. 

Thanks to all my stockists for believing in what I do it has been wild stocking at some of the biggest online stores, like Dollskill, Shop Jeen, Mary Jane Nite and also the coolest independent mortar store Distal Phalanx. Also, seeing my designs on such influential girls in the community and fighting against knockoffs by cult jap brand BUBBLES and even Ragged Priest. 

You were with me every step of the way!! It’s been 3 years since I made the bag that started it all and clear hearts are still popping up everywhere. What is original and what can you actually own? Everything is being appropriated constantly in this money driven industry. As I savour the pace of slow hand crafting, commercialism keeps moving which can become a stressful situation which affects my process.  I am just so grateful that whenever some of you see a clear heart design you immediately think of me and send me dms. You have made me feel like I have left my tiny mark in the world. 

Recently I feel that my craft is becoming a little impersonal and commercial. It's time for me to move on and continue to create as my style and aesthetics evolve. I will continue to fulfill any custom orders I'm only a DM away, closing the shop will enable a more personal way to create unique pieces and work closely with my customers. 

For now last items are available only on Dollskill exclusively while some samples and a few listings will be available on my DPOP: @wenopia.

Choi 彩

While I was in Hong Kong I teamed up with Somewhere Nowhere and Rose NG for a shoot featured in La Monda Magazine! We trekked out with our model squad (consiting of Bbysenpai, Ruby Gloom, Aka and Kikko Lam) to Choi Hung Village - the housing estate that appears to be a pastel dream fantasy.

DYNASTI- 贰零肆陆 by Rose NG

When I was in Melbourne early last year; I had the pleasure of staying with Rose Ng and Ice Cheung - of Dynasti. After I came home in a food coma to a frozen house due to the malfunctioning heating system, to my dismay, we setup a makeshift studio space in the living room and shot this amazing series and video. There were no complains as we shot into the early hours of the morning because we knew we were merely vessels materialising Rose's stylised vision, a re imagining of Wong Kar Wai's movie 2046. The whole experience has really got me proud of my roots; looking into Chinese culture and tradition and just being inspired by Chinese aesthetics, a philosophy that drives Dynasti

Furry Phenomenon

It's been a lifetime since I've posted on here! I have been giving my furries my 100% attention, it is a tough gig hand making every single order. It's so worth it, sending a piece of myself out with every pht goody. I will never give up. 

Here is a shoot featured in Aether Magazine Issue 6 (like real hold in your hand mag!!!), shot by my friend and rising star Rose Ng. Full spread and more about what I have been up to after the break!

So Spooky So Kitty Guts

For Halloween this year I'm going to be a Hello Kitty fanatic - like a stalker, wanna kill and stuff you add to my collection (just for halloween though)! My local fabric store has the cutest selection of Hello Kitty fleece at the moment. Every time I go in for supplies I have to go visit the HK section and pat it all and stare for a while... (stalker face).

Sailor Saturn

New Sailor Moon is definitely growing on me! Nevertheless I'm still quite attached to the one of our (earlier) childhood and remain conservative about how big their eyes should be and itching get to the part where the extra bad ass Sailor Stars come into the mix, such as Saturn. I know I know, not by a long - shot but a girl can dream right? Black bob and turtleneck, I can dress up like my fave Sailor Star... when she's a norm... :p
