Flowery Years
Objective
commemorate Hong Kong filmmaker Wong Kar-wai’s seminal work In the Mood for Love with a limited apparel collection
Problem

Insight
the film’s themes of isolation and desire for connection are analogous to the experience of quarantine
Strategy
create an homage to Wong Kar-wai’s film through a contemporary lens
Idea
Flowery Years, a short film cum lookbook, featuring two protagonists separately sharing the experience of lockdown and a muted desire for connection à la In the Mood for Love
