"Words are small shapes in the gorgeous chaos of the world."
- Diane Akerman
I am Alice Liu, a Taiwanese fashion designer based in London,UK.
My works are usually inspired by culture, environment, politics and memories. Living in this chaotic yet gorgeous world, to be inspire by little things that happen in our lives, to do art and design that connect to our memory pieces and emotions is our greatest treasure. I use them as my paint and fashion as my canvas to tell the story of lives, to inspire others, to touch souls.
