Fashion, for me, is a profound form of self-expression. Each garment is a meticulously crafted piece, imbued with my vision and intended to empower the wearer. I find immense joy in creating, carefully considering every detail – from the initial concept to the final stitch. This dedication brings my designs to life, allowing them to resonate with those who wear them. It transcends clothing creation. It's a powerful tool for self-expression, a way to bring ideas to life and share them with the world. Like any creative endeavor, it can be challenging at times, but the inherent joy of the process and the potential to empower others keeps me motivated. My own escape came through the worlds of anime, film, and media. Now, I aspire to design garments that spark similar feelings of happiness and self-discovery in others.

After human-made atrocities left the world fragmented, it became scarred by wastelands, abandoned areas, and nuclear radiation. Minilla embodies the suppressed rage brewing beneath the surface - a manifestation of nature’s fury provoked by humanity’s disregard. As humans lost touch with nature, Minilla symbolizes the pent-up emotions of the natural world, reflecting the consequences of our insensitivity.
