A surreal, autobiographical, psychosomatic story of all women in my mind.

"WOMAN IN SEARCH OF FREEDOM. TRANSFORMATION».
An art-fashion collection by Chandra Li
Presented at Unique Fashion Show New York 2026
Origin
The project is based on original paintings created in the style of fashion surrealism. Through AI tools, these works were transformed into fashion looks, forming an independent digital fashion collection. The collection explores female identity, the concept of freedom, and the transformation of an artistic image through technology.
Concept
I transform my characters using AI fashion tools, making them more realistic while preserving their surreal essence. A new layer emerges — the fashion image as a collaboration. My artistic language enters into dialogue with aesthetics that resonate with me: the architectural audacity of Schiaparelli and the structural dynamism of Adidas.
Digital Campaign
The next stage is movement and life. I create a digital campaign in which the characters become active participants within a constructed visual space, extending the collection beyond static imagery into a dynamic narrative format.
Runway & Format
The collection was developed for the Digital Unique Fashion Show and presented in New York as a digital runway presentation within the structure of the show. The project demonstrates how an idea can be presented to the world rapidly and sustainably — without physical samples or a traditional production cycle, through the strength of concept and digital tools.
