Bio
Clara Lu is a sustainable fashion designer focused on concept-driven womenswear, with strong interests in material experimentation and storytelling through garments. She is drawn to the emotional potential of clothing, exploring how relationships, memory, and everyday objects can be translated into wearable forms. Her work fosters interaction between individuals as well as between individuals and society, exploring how clothing can function as a medium that connects personal experiences with broader social contexts. She integrates traditional craft techniques such as cyanotype to create garments that reflect diverse interpersonal relationships and identities, thereby engaging with themes of intimacy, transformation, and connection.
INDIGO ARCHIVE
In Indigo Archive, garments are reimagined as emotional vessels by visualizing relationships into physical keepsakes. People are invited to create cyanotype prints using meaningful objects tied to their relationships, embedding personal stories into clothing. Modular, detachable designs allow pieces to evolve as relationships change, deepening connection and increasing perceived value to encourage longer wear.
The collection emphasizes connection, storytelling, and longevity, transforming garments into meaningful treasures.
