Xiao Yao (Free & Unfettered) Denim Brocade Maxi Dress
Process Treatment: Bleach Calligraphy - 3 hours
Description: The hand-written calligraphy on this dress is inspired by a classic TCM (traditional Chinese medicine) formula “Xiao Yao San”, that is used to treat stress, anxiety, and liver Qi stagnation. The front of the dress writes “Xiao Yao”, the artist’s favorite Chinese word, describing a sense of freedom, ease, optimism, lightheartedness, and harmony. The back of the dress writes the herbs in this formula: Bupleurum root, Chinese angelica root, White peony root, Poria mushroom, Bighead atractylodes rhizome, Roasted ginger, Chinese Licorice root. The artist wishes that you can become the embodiment of “Xiao Yao” while wearing this dress. (Calligraphy by Jessy Chen)
