Cat Person

My inspiration is from “cat people,” people who love cats and treat them like their own children. I used a lot of Chinese folk costume elements, such as tiger hats and tiger shoes. These are the costumes prepared by Chinese elders for children, which imply happiness and health, and the silhouettes are extracted from Chinese folk costumes. I also used mohair to simulate the fur texture of a cat.
