When the green sun rises

About The Entry

"When the Green Sun Rises" is a creative and transformative fashion project that explores empowerment through color and self-expression. Rooted in personal experience, it investigates the journey from conformity to individuality through the lens of clothing and textile-based storytelling. Drawing from childhood memories of parental restrictions and societal expectations, the project traces the evolution of my fashion identity—from being limited to pink, red, and white, to embracing green as a symbol of my authentic self.

Fashion, in this context, becomes more than clothing; it is a vessel for emotional expression and personal growth. Through a combination of research and hands-on practices such as hand-dyeing, textile manipulation, and color theory exploration, "When the Green Sun Rises" delves into how color can act as a transformative force in reclaiming identity.

By reflecting on my own process of self-discovery, this work invites others to consider how garments and colors can be tools for healing and self-liberation. It is a visual narrative of breaking free—where fabric becomes a site of resistance, and the act of dressing becomes a reclaiming of the self.
