Think art only belongs to galleries or exhibitions? Well, up-and-coming fashion designer Han Lulu would argue that it belongs in your closet as well. Known for her style of incorporating art elements into her design, the Istituto Marangoni Milan graduate has been making noise in the fashion world since founding her brand in 2008.

Becoming a mother has influenced her work in recent years. Han’s latest collection, ‘Little World,’ was inspired by her daughter’s love for her birthday present – a painting by Jiang Yu. Featuring fun elements in the artist’s work like hobby horses, flowers and animals, her latest work brings back memories of one’s carefree childhood.

Using 3D cutting, her dresses are also highlighted by shattered hand-sewed flowers on the edges. Dresses in the collection, according to the designer, represent a sense of innocence, and are dedicated to her daughter and girls who once dreamed to be little princesses when they were young.
