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(Son of Godzilla) symbolizes the pent-up emotions of the natural world, reflecting the consequences of our insensitivity.

1947 was a year of recovery for most of the world after the wreckage of WWII. While the world was starting its return to peacetime and heal, this did not ring true for all. This look resides within the contrast between the booming economy and prosperity of America to the war-ridden state of Taiwan. A cropped blazer and trouser is a modern interpretation of the fashion in America from the 50s; the gathered hole a reference to the 228 Massacre that occurred in Taiwan due to the rebellion against the dictatorship of China.
