Meyoko's debut collection emerges from a diverse tapestry of influences, where darkness intertwines with beauty in unexpected ways. Inspired by the visionary creations of Alexander McQueen 'JOAN (AW98)' and the haunting photography of Nick Knight 'Devon Aoki for Alexander Mcqueen, 1997', Meyoko found her creative calling.
Drawing from the depths of history and human experience, Meyoko's art delves into the darker realms of Victorian mental asylum patients and the gothic tales of the Grimm brothers. However, her inspiration is not merely aesthetic; it is a reflection of the horrors endured by humanity, from the atrocities of the American slave trade to the unimaginable suffering inflicted by torture devices.
Though Meyoko's work confronts the darkness of our past, it does so with a purposeāto evoke remembrance and ensure that such atrocities are never forgotten. Through her art, she strives to shed light on the darkest corners of history, sparking conversations and igniting change, even within the realm of fashion.
