An objection.
However.
Nevertheless.
Could there be a different way to life?

Until then, all I can convey - is through the clothes.

design philosophy.

east asian aesthetics.
An aesthetic philosophy centered on finding beauty in imperfection, asymmetry, and impermanence.
With a drape that flows around each body uniquely, it emphasises simplicity, modesty, and authenticity - rather than striving for a flawless perfection.
With this shirt, the twist around the body pursues asymmetrical understandings of beauty and creates a unique drape each time, reflecting concepts of impermanence.
material technology.

cotton poplin.
A strong, smooth cotton, known for its fine horizontal ribs, crisp feel, and slight sheen.
Perfect for durable and breathable shirts - engineered to resist wrinkles and hold shape well, adding a touch of refinement over normal cotton finishes.
heatproof.

ambient.ware technology.
Built to excel in Southeast Asia's heat and humidity.
A lightweight, breathable fabric releases heat and wicks moisture away from the skin.
Relaxed cuts promote airflow, keeping you cool even on a hot day.
versatility.

customisable.
The twisted shirt can be customised and adjusted, giving you the freedom to interpret the garment.
Button options and a strap allow you to tie it different ways, customising the fit around the waist.

Lawrence Chiu, professional flutist and composer, performing in the twisted shirt.

"It's a shirt that you can immediately see is different. And for the audience, when they see us wear it on stage, they can immediately tell - this is not a typical performance."


"The clothes are simple, but not so simple. There's something to them you can only know once you put them on."

"I would describe the clothes as - unordinary."
