Carol Lan, designer, Sydney
“My grandmother and mother. The chic elegance in the pale colour tones, the layering and combination of different garments and accessories, and how it is deeply connected to the surrounding and environment – this has built up the style of my work and reflects on my identity as a fashion designer. I want my designs to be fun, comfortable and genderless, emotional, interesting and unique. The huge connection with nature and surroundings brings out emotions and a different vision of thoughts.”
