Citing the modern art movement, Excessivism, as a major influence on her collection, Choi aims to highlight the social issues of excess and consumer waste. In preparing for her collection, she studied the closets of her friends and family: “I decided that we have so much clothing, but we only wear a portion of it. Each stripe represents a garment and it’s multiplied so that excessiveness comes to life to symbolize over consumption.” Choi made deliberate design choices to use colors and synthetic materials that were most represented in the closets she studied.
