Expressing her voice through art has already been a part of her life and creating meaningful and beautiful things in life has always been her passion. She said “Fashion provides me the greatest platform to put my passion into practice, because it gives me the gratification in impacting every person in everyday life.”
Tzu Hsuan’s brand “THY” which means “your” in old english emphasizes and celebrates individual identity. THY provides affordable luxury ready-to-wear and couture evening wear. Designer embraces the dimensions of femininity and reflects it creatively using color, volume, and texture. THY is traditional and fresh, whimsical and architectural, lavish and pure.
THY Fall 2019 collection is about lucid dream. In this collection “I was creating dream imagery to create a lucid dream state while you’re looking at my pieces. I was inspired by worship song “So Will I” written by Joel Houston, Benjamin Hastings & Michael Fatkin where it sings the ocean, sky and land evolving and pursuit of one voice. My collection as my canvas, painted the power of light in darkness and beauty in ashes.” said Tzu Hsuan.
