Plum Fairies & Centerstage 2024
Crieits Return to Original Owner
Every girl’s childhood is often beautifully filled with the magical experience of hearing enchanting stories about princesses and fairies, sparking limitless imagination and wonder from a very early age. My story from childhood is pretty much the same, where the kindness of fairies exists and a princess lived in a magnificent castle far, far away. She was trapped in a world where there wasn’t any justice, a place overshadowed by darkness and unfairness, yearning for hope and light.
however as a kid, i had a habit of shaking of the things i didn’t like such as witch and villains and the stepmoms and evil, what i did do as a kid who would love to dress up, and think how many pretty gowns would a princess have ? what type of jewelry would they wear ?
as the whispers of my pal sitting next to me, snap me back into reality, the music started and i saw the 1st model walk in a way the most angelic way, on the ramp, my thoughts got clouded into 2 word plum fairy
Brand KanaLili - Designer Lilian Kan
Runway Collection: 𝕄𝕠𝕟𝕠 𝕟𝕠 𝕒𝕨𝕒𝕣𝕖
Lilian Kan’s visionary approach to modern minimalism infused with a deliberate sense of emotional depth. The collection is a masterclass in monochrome elegance, emphasizing clean lines, architectural silhouettes, and a refined color palette that ranges from stark whites to deep charcoals. Each piece reflects a subtle play between structure and fluidity, allowing the wearer to experience both strength and vulnerability simultaneously.
Lilian Kan’s meticulous craftsmanship is evident in the choice of innovative textiles and the seamless integration of unexpected details—such as asymmetrical cuts and layered textures—that elevate simplicity into a bold statement. The enduring theme of “Mono no aware,” a Japanese concept expressing the bittersweet awareness of the transient nature of things, resonates throughout the collection as a poetic reminder of beauty found in impermanence.
Coming up with my top six favourite looks was definitely challenging, but after careful consideration, here are my top six designs, each uniquely special in its own way.
