Marie Claire Italia






My illustration of Diane Pernet is in a new special issue of Marie Claire Italy, released twice a year and this time with the March issue.
The name of the issue is Marie Claire#Likes, it is Marie Claire's last brand new publication, its purpose is to put together in-depth analysis on art, fashion, culture, society by worldwide known columnists and special projects by worldwide known photographers and artists. The special projects investigate every time in a different way the relationship between art and fashion. This time the investigation is on creativity. The last page of the issue, which is conceived as the signature of the entire magazine, is always devoted to an iconic woman, a muse, and this time they have chosen Diane Pernet. Since the global theme of the issue is creativity, they wish to publish a portrait of Diane Pernet not as a photograph, but as a drawing.
The illustration and feature is in: their printed issue as well as on their website:http://mclikes.marieclaire.it/diane-pernet

ROSE






FANCL X Sunny Gu for FANCL's 35th Anniversary
I'm so honored to collaborate with FANCL cosmetics to celebrate the brand's 35th anniversary with a series of packaging designs. 

FANCL product contains no preservatives, antiseptics, disinfectants, petroleum surfactants, fragrance, coloring agents or mineral oil. Over the years, FANCL has been providing customers safe and worry-free products with the highest standard of quality. This is a brand that built on a solid belief system rather than profits or convenience. FANCL has my full respect. I’m very humbled and grateful for this opportunity!

For this packaging series, we have tried our best to create an engaging visual presentation that embraces FANCL’s brand identity and mission. For each design, it’s a combination of a girl and flower(s), each of them has given a special characteristic and personality. It’s a celebration of nature, purity, beauty, simplicity, passion, caring and love.
Fourth of the series : Rose
Rose: is love, passion, elegance and warm heart

When FANCL team introduced me to this new species of rose, I was blown away by the beauty of its colors. It has light green on the edge of petals, orange tone on the outer layers and a gradation of coral pinks near the center of the flower. It looks so tender, sophisticated and magical! I wanted to create a visual experience that’s so distinct to match with the special flower. I made the girl wear the most glamorous floral dress while carrying a giant rose with poise. Each rose looks a little different, full of individuality and elegance.

Fancl hosted a campaign to determine the name for this special flower. After months of name applications and votes, Fancl customers named this rose species "Eternal Beauty"
