"Mơ" (Dream). Retaining a breath

"Mơ" begins on a white linen base.
A short spaghetti-strap croptop,
to wear out, to go through a long day, to stroll through the city at dusk, and to roam on holidays.
"Mơ" offers a garment that preserves enough space,
allowing the wearer to live within it according to their own breath.

On the canvas of white linen are a few sprigs of flowers, a butterfly.
The threads are embroidered by hand.
Not covering the entire fabric. Not trying to depict a full garden.
A few needle strokes,
A touch of color,
A space of white kept intact,
So the wearer's eyes have a place to rest,
To allow space for the embroidered lines to breathe.

In "Mơ", each stitch is a unit of time.
Each white space is a pause.
Every small variance between the stitches is a vivid testament: the work has passed through human hands.

"Mơ" does not dream of another place.
"Mơ" does not create a garden to escape the city.
"Mơ" does not invite women to leave their current pace of life.
"Mơ" does not seek a slower life.
"Mơ" simply asks a more humble question: Can we always breathe in our own breath, even as life moves fast?

In the midst of a life that always pushes us to move faster,
there are still beauties that only appear when we allow ourselves to slow down a little.
To look.
To touch.
To wear.
To live.

What we need to retain amidst the city is a single breath.
