Wing 翼, 2015. Ivory sinamay teardrop fascinator base from London; blue veil from London; cornflower blue ostrich feather from London; diamonte pin from New York.

I have always wanted to make a hat that looks like wings. Wings that can lifted by the wind should breath with a sense of lightness and smoothness, and alter the shapes with the flowing wind.

想做一顶像翅膀一样的帽子，于是买了很多羽毛来测试。能被风托起的翅膀，要轻盈、流畅、有呼吸感，并且能够随着风改变形状。

Harvest 收获，2015. Smartie sinamay fascinator base from London, black cotton fascinator base from Fujian, hand painted vintage flower from Boston, acorns and shells from Quincy, purple ostrich feather from London.

The color of gold is a gift from autumn. Shells, stones, acorns and flowers have all received its rich blessing of gold. "Harvest" is a customized fascinator for Ms. Li Weiwei from Beijing/Shenzhen. Weiwei used to live in London and she enjoys living along the sea. So I selected most of the materials from London and added shells from the beach of Quincy, Boston. "Harvest," therefore, becomes a reminder and carrier of important memories.

金色是来自秋天的礼物，贝壳、矿石、橡果和花儿都得到了丰盛的馈赠，染上了丰收的颜色。为深圳/北京的李溦溦小姐定制的礼帽。溦溦曾生活在伦敦，于是采用了许多来自伦敦的材料，她喜欢海，因此加上了一些天然的贝壳，希望它能同时唤起和承载一路成长的回忆。

Blue-White Rose 青花玫瑰, 2015. Hand painted cotton fascinator base; vintage daisy flower from an Iranian bookstore in Boston; white crin from London; Klein blue and sky blue ribbon from New York; magpie feather from Storm King Art Center. 

"Blue-White Rose" is customized made for Lisa Lam, the director of One Art Space in New York. The hat is designed to match with Lisa's blue and white dress, which she'll wear and join the Melbourne Cup Fashion Fundraiser event with the Australian Community in New York. Lisa was a Chinese American and she has precious qualities of Eastern and Western culture. The fascinator base is hand painted and dyed in Chinese paint, inspired by the blue-and-white porcelain from Yuan Dynasty. A rose, typical in America and Australia, is added to the fascinator base, to mark the reunion of the two cultures.

为纽约的Lisa Lam小姐参加墨尔本赛马会纽约筹款酒会定制的帽子。Lisa小姐是One Art Space的总监，身为美籍华裔，她的身上融汇着中美两种文化的特质。因此我用中国画颜料将帽子染上类似元代青花瓷的蓝色，并加上一朵手做的玫瑰，因为玫瑰是美国和澳大利亚都常见的花。

IRIS WIND 鸢尾风

Iris Wind 鸢尾风, 2015. A vintage fascinator from Ara Qiu; black veil from London; vintage iris flower from an Iranian bookstore in Boston; shining yarn from Brooklyn; purple ostrich feather from London.

A friend gave me a vintage straw hat as a gift, and I decided to revive its glamour. Van Gogh’s depiction of violet iris is always among my beloved works. Just like Wang Wei’s poem, “in the silent solitude of the deep valley, blossoms thrive and fade away,” iris petals float to New York with the wind, will they also bring the scent of wheat field from Arles? "Iris Wind" now belongs to Yang Mei from Beijing. She is the founder of a kindergarten that takes care of children in rural areas as well as those whose parents leave for work in bigger cities. “This hat reminds me of quite a lot tenderness in my teenage years,” Yang said. “To be honest, my life as a young lady was not that easy and comfortable. But there were always some beautiful moments, that I waited, smiled, with a bit shyness so particular to a boyish young girl. That is exactly what I feel when I put on this hat --- a sense of gentle refinement and dreamlike elegance.”

友人赠送的一顶古董草帽，决定将其改造焕发新的光彩。梵高的紫蓝鸢尾是我最爱的作品之一。涧户寂无人，纷纷开且落。鸢尾花瓣随风落在纽约，是否有阿尔勒的麦田香。“鸢尾风”现在属于北京的杨梅，针对农村和打工子弟小朋友的牛坊小航星幼儿园的创始人。杨梅说：“这顶帽子让我回想起不少柔软的少女时光。说实话，少女时代的我过的并非那么舒展和自如，但总有一些美妙的时刻，像少年一样的少女羞涩地微笑着等待，就像戴上这顶帽子的娴静优雅梦幻的感觉。”

Flamingo Pond 火烈鸟塘, 2015. Handpainted cotton fascinator base; vintage flamingo pin from New Haven; cornblue flower from London; shell from Qunicy; shining yarn from Brooklyn; ivory crin from London.

“Fragrant grass waves along the river, 
a Chinese egret rests alone at leisure. 
Floating dust gone with the long night;  
worldly worries disappear with peace in heart.”

I acquired a vintage flamingo brooch in New Haven by chance. For a long time I’ve been fascinated with this kind of bird, and its long, slender neck reminds me of Chinese egret. However, they differ vastly in terms of habits and temperaments. While flamingo enjoys living in groups, Chinese egret prefers solitariness, just like the differences in two cultures. So I came up with the idea of a Chinese flamingo, who rests alone on a riverland, accompanied by shells and rocks from Boston. This imagined bird bears mixed characteristics of the two. “Flamingo Pond” now belongs to Cherry in New York.

“芳草绕芳汀，白鹭闲沙洲。夜久浮尘尽，心清俗虑宁。”在纽黑文偶得一枚火烈鸟古董胸针。我一直很爱这种鸟，觉得它修长的脖子和中国的白鹭很像，但是火烈鸟和白鹭习性很不同，前者喜群居，后者喜独静，正像两种文化的不同特点。于是我想象出一种中国式的火烈鸟，独自栖息在沙洲上，还有来自波士顿的贝壳和石子相伴，这是白鹭化的火烈鸟，或者说火烈鸟化的白鹭。“火烈鸟池塘”现属于纽约的Cherry。

The Temple of the Golden Pavilion 金阁寺, 2015. Handpainted silk fascinator base and black cotton fascinator base; vintage golden pin from New York; ivory sinamay from London; white loose feather from London.

This hat is made in a tribute to Mishima Yukio."Like a moon that hangs in the night sky, the Golden Temple had been built as a symbol of the dark ages. In this darkness, the beautiful, slender pillars of the building rested quietly and steadily, emitting a faint light from inside. Whatever words people might speak to the Golden Temple, it must continue to stand there silently, displaying its delicate structure to the eyes of the world and enduring the darkness that surrounded it." In The Temple of the Golden Pavilion, Mishima Yukio describes the Temple of the Golden Pavilion - the symbol of beauty - from the protagonist's eye. The mysterious copper-gold bird on top of the temple doesn't move, but it flys eternally through time on its shining wings. Now it belongs to Lorriane Liu from New York.

三岛由纪夫的小说《金阁寺》，主人公以为金阁寺是世间最美的存在：“金阁犹如夜空中的明月，也是作为黑暗时代的象征而建造的。因此我梦幻的金阁以涌现在其四周的暗黑为背景。在黑暗中，美丽而细长的柱子结构，从里面发出了微光。”挺立在屋顶长年经受风雨的金鸟，不会飞，但永远在时间里飞翔。“金阁寺”现属于纽约的Lorriane。

Victorian Cameo 维多利亚贝雕, 2015. Smartie sinamay fascinator base from London; ivory plain veil from London; geisha spot crin from London; vintage royal pin gifted from a New York friend; vintage daisy from an Iranian bookstore in Boston.

Mrs. Feng from Chengdu asked me to design a customized hat for her. The key words she gave me are: romantic, soft, and feminine. The Romantic style from early Victorian era immediately came to my mind. Borrowing from renaissance paintings and sculptures, the Victorian style is very much about the lyricism of nature. Thus I found a vintage shell cameo pin of classical early Victorian style for her. Tender and elegant, the female profile on the cameo resembles the lyrical heart of a young woman. "Victorian Cameo" was lost on its journey from New York to China. We both hope one day it'll show up at a lost treasure exhibition hosted by Chinese/U.S.A. custom.

来自成都的冯小姐找我定制一顶帽子，关键词是浪漫、柔和、女人味。首先想到的便是維多利亞早期的浪漫主义风格，从文艺复兴绘画和雕塑中获取灵感，维多利亚风格充满了对大自然的抒情。于是找来了一枚维多利亚早期经典风格的Cameo贝雕古董胸针，橢圓形面上的女性側面頭像温柔优雅，是满怀抒情的少女之心。“维多利亚贝雕”在从纽约运输的中国的旅程中遗失，我们都期待有天在海关遗珍大展上再次见到它！

Cherry Dye 染樱, 2015. Hand painted cotton fascinator base; cornflower blue ostrich feather from London; vintage pin from Brooklyn; hand dyed cherry blossom.

I remember when we were both little, you loved chatting and I loved to smile. Once we sat side by side under a cherry blossom tree, listening to the whistling wind and birds’ melodies in the woods. Slowly we slipped into our dreams, where countless flowers drifted away. “Cherry Dye" now belongs to Yanyan from New York.

记得当时年纪小，你爱谈天我爱笑。有一回并肩坐在樱树下，风在林梢鸟儿在叫。我们不知怎的睡着了，梦里花落知多少。”染樱“现属于纽约的妍彦。

Vanitas 维尼塔斯, 2015. Red velvet vintage hat from a New York friend; red veil from London; black mesh from Brooklyn; vintage chrysanthemum from an Iranian bookstore in Boston; a hedgehog pin from New York; vintage red beans from Morgan O'Hara's collection.

Autumn blossoms, luxuriantly flourishing;
Blooming it seems, while fading away slowly;
Vanity of vanities, all is vanity;
Delight and sorrow, gone too soon;
Today next year, falling blossoms and foliages will cover the ground.
However, they are no longer the ones today.

Altered from a vintage red velvet hat from a friend,
“Vanitas” is custom made for Chunyi in Beijing.

秋日之花，郁郁葱葱
既在盛放，也在凋零
维尼塔斯，虚空之虚空
欢乐和悲伤，皆转瞬即逝
明年今日，还将有花和叶落满地
但又不是今年的花和叶
用一顶友人赠送的古董红色丝绒礼帽改造
这顶是给北京的纯一的定制

Butterfly Dream 蝴蝶梦, 2015. Smartie sinamay fascinator base from London; ivory plain veil from London; dusky pink sinamay trim from London; geisha spot crin from London; vintage butterfly pin from Hansi; irory goose feather from London.

“I wonder why my harp has fifty strings, 
Each with its flower-like fret an interval of youth. 
Chuangzi is day-dreaming, bewitched by butterflies, 
The sorrow heart of Emperor Wang is crying in a cuckoo.”
This hat is custom made for Cherry in New York City. It is a dream about spring, when winter is coming.

锦瑟无端五十弦，一弦一柱思华年。庄生晓梦迷蝴蝶，望帝春心托杜鹃。这顶是给在纽约的Cherry的定制，快到冬天时做的关于春天的一个梦。

Iranian Clock 伊朗的钟, 2015. Hand painted silk fascinator base; vintage clock sculpture from an Iranian bookstore in Boston; cornflower blue feather from London; vintage iris flower from an Iranian bookstore in Boston; black spot crin from London.

The vintage clock on the hat came from an used book store in Boston. When I was wandering in the store, the fabric flower in a large vase immediately caught my attention, and I started to have a conversation with the owner. He is an Iranian immigrant, who used to be a scholar of ancient Persian calligraphy, and started the bookstore after retirement. He was happy to know that I deign hats, and shared his stories with me and even gave me a small clock as a gift. I’ve been hoping to show him what this small clock has become in my next trip to Boston.

帽子上的古董小钟来自波士顿的一家旧书店。我进去闲逛时一眼就看中了中央的大花瓶里插的一束布花。跟店主聊天，发现他是伊朗人，以前是研究伊朗古代书法的学者，后来移民美国，退休以后开了一家旧书店。他得知我设计帽子后很开心，跟我分享了他的故事，后来还送给我一只小小的钟做纪念。一直希望下次去波士顿时能够给他看这个钟最后变成了什么样子。

Chrysanthemum and Sword 菊与刀, 2015. Smartie sinamay fascinator base from London; ivory shining yarn from Brooklyn; ivory sinamay from London; vintage chrysanthemum from an Iranian bookstore in Boston.

Ruth Benedict compared the contradictoriness in Japanese culture to chrysanthemum and sword: “The Japanese are, to the highest degree, both aggressive and unaggressive, both militaristic and aesthetic, both insolent and polite, rigid and adaptable…” The autumn chrysanthemum is a wonderful flower. Unlike tender yet fragile flowers in the spring, it braves the autumn frost with a heroic spirit. I was thus inspired and crafted this hat for independent women, who are both gentle and strong. "Chrysanthemum and Sword" is a gift from Qingzi in Beijing, to her dear friend Feixin in California, U.S.A.

鲁思·本尼迪克特将日本文化中的矛盾性比喻为刀与菊——“既生性好斗而又温和谦让的；是既穷兵黩武而又崇尚美感的；是既桀骜自大而又彬彬有礼的；是既顽固不化而又能伸能屈的”。秋菊是一种奇妙的花，它挲秋霜而立，不像其他花卉那样温柔可人，而是多了一份英气。因此做了这顶黑白底色的帽子，给柔中带刚的独立女性。"菊与刀“是在北京的清子小姐送给曾在加州一起生活的好友斐欣的礼物。

Moon 月, 2015. Handpainted cotton fascinator base; vintage geometric earring from New York; vintage daisy from Boston; flower branch from New York.

“From a wine pot amidst the flowers,
I drink alone without partners.
To invite the moon I raise my cup.
We're three, as my shadow shows up.
Alas, the moon doesn't drink.
My shadow follows but doesn't think.
Still for now I have these friends,
To cheer me up until the spring ends.”
--- Li Bai, Drinking Alone Under the Moon

I think this is the ideal state of solitude, developed from mourning one’s own loneliness to peacefully searching for one’s own solitude. Moon now belongs to New York graphic designer Mine Suda, as a gift for her designing the logo for Chapeau Echo.

花间一壶酒，独酌无相亲。举杯邀明月，对影成三人。——唐.李白《月下独酌》我想这是理想的孤独境界，从伤景怀情感叹自己的孤独，到心闲自安寻得自己的孤独。

Geisha 日本艺妓, 2015. Hand painted silk fascinator base; vintage chrysanthemum from an Iranian bookstore in Boston; cornflower blue ostrich feather from London; geisha crin from London; stone from Morgan O'Hara's collection.

Geisha is the name of a crin fabric that I found in a shop in London. I am curious how this traditional Japanese culture affect terms in Western design. The fin de siècle Japonisme raised a craze for Asian aesthetics in Europe. Utagawa Kunisada’s depictions of Geisha in his woodblock prints were not considered high art in Japan at his time, but they were well received in Europe. The dramatic postures and rich expressions of the beautiful women in Utagawa’s works greatly inspired impressionists in their portraitures. Degas, Manet and Monet were avid collectors of ukiyo-e woodblock prints, and these prints later influenced the West from design to architecture. For details about Geisha color, please refer to Geisha: Colors of the Flower and Willow World. "Geisha" now belongs to Liliana Gao, a gallerist in New York.

在伦敦一家材料店发现的这种硬纱的颜色叫Geisha（日本艺妓），我好奇这种日本的传统文化如何影响到西方设计的基本术语。19世纪末的和风热潮(Japonisme)在欧洲引发了对东方美术的审美崇拜。歌川国贞描绘的吉原艺妓在日本难登大雅之堂，但在欧洲广为流传。画中美人戏剧化的姿态，细腻丰富的表情为印象派艺术家的肖像创作带来了启发。德加、马奈、莫奈都收藏了不少浮世绘，后又影响到西方设计、建筑的方方面面。 “Geisha"现在属于纽约的Lilian。

Little Black Dress 小黑裙，2015.10. Handpainted cotton fascinator bas; vintage  diamond jewlery from New York; ivory silk ribbon from New York; diamonte veil from London; black spot crin from London.

Invented by Coco Chanel a hundred years ago, the little black dress is still an essential component of every lady's closet. The color of black is simple and elegant, good for every occasion. I found a bow-tie shape diamond vintage pin in a store in East Village, New York and was inspired by the elegant shape of it. "The Little Black Dress" was created under the inspiration of simple beauty. The hat if a gift from Ms. Cai Xian based in San Francisco, to her friend who is far away.

一个世纪前可可·香奈儿发明的小黑裙，仍是每个女人衣橱里必不可少的心爱之物。黑色简单而平凡，但却优雅而隽永。在纽约东村的一家古着店淘到一枚蝴蝶结形状的镶钻胸针，于是决定做一顶配小黑裙的帽子，简洁优雅，细节又不失精致。"小黑裙"是在旧金山的蔡弦小姐送给相隔两地的好友的礼物。

Thanksgiving 感恩节, 2015. Red cotton fascinator base from New York; shining golden yarn from Brooklyn; silver sinamay leaf cut from London; pearl from Hansi Liao; vintage holly bush from Morgan O'Hara.

这顶帽子是特意为我的忘年交Morgan O'Hara创作的，也是感恩节礼物。Morgan是美国最早开始创作观念艺术的女性艺术家之一，一生在世界各地旅居漂泊，日本、意大利、德国、比利时、捷克、法国、英国、美国……现年74岁的她仍然精力无限，穿梭于世界各地举办展览。她喜爱收集旧物，在我刚开始做帽子时就送给我一个木头帽子模，里面装满了她在世界各地收集来的干花和小首饰，这顶帽子上的冬青红果就来自她的收藏。冬青红果经常用于圣诞树的装饰，当感恩节开始时，美国各地开始充溢着浓浓的节日气氛，到处可见这种小红果。现在属于万天星。

This hat is a Thanksgiving gift that is specially designed for Morgan O’hara: our friendship has spanned generations. Morgan is one of the earliest female artists who started working on conceptual art in the United States. She spends her life living and traveling across the world: Japan, Italy, Germany, Belgium, Czech Republic, France, England, and the United States. Now seventy four years old, Morgan is full of energy for her busy international schedule. 

Morgan loves collecting vintage stuff. When I first started designing hats, she gave me a wood hat block, which was filled with dry flowers and small jewelries that she collected from different places in the world, and the holly bush on this hat comes from her collection. Holly bushes are often used as decorations for Christmas trees. When Thanksgiving season starts, the United States is filled with holiday atmosphere, and holly bushes can be seen everywhere. Now it belongs to Tianxing Wan.

God Bless Us with Mercy 上帝保佑, 2015. Black sinamay teardrop fascinator base from London; aqua sinamay fabric from London; night blue shining yarn from Brooklyn; vintage hydrangea from New York; vintage heartshape necklace from Hansi Liao.

Hansi gave me a heart-shaped vintage locket as a gift. When I opened it, a small piece of paper inside reads: God Bless Us with Mercy.” When this message was written is unknown, but the enduring power of the sentence is timeless. I made her this hat as a gift, with two turquoise wings resembling wings of a angel. In a very difficult moment in my life, Hansi shared with me a quote: “For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.” I will forever remember the strength in this verse. "God Bless Us with Mercy" now belongs to Hansi in New York.

汉斯送给我一枚心形的古董项链，打开一看里面有一张小纸条，写着“God Bless Us with Mercy."不知是什么时间写下来的祝福，在任何时间都适用。于是为她做了这顶帽子作为礼物，两只湖蓝色的翅膀像天使之翼。在一个很艰难的时刻，汉斯送给我一句话：“所以，我们不丧胆。外体虽然毁坏，内心却一天新似一天。我们这至暂至轻的苦楚，要为我们成就极重无比、永远的荣耀。”我将永远铭记这句话里的力量。“上帝保佑”现属于纽约的汉斯。

Purple Iris 紫色鸢尾, 2015. Smartie sinamay fascinator base from London; ivory plain veil from London; ivory loose feather from London; shining yarn from Brooklyn; vintage irises from an Iranian bookstore in Boston.

This purple hat is custom designed for Cherry in New York City. Purple is one of her favorite colors: “The color is a mixture of red and blue. It is a combination of warm and cool colors, ice and fire, passion and coldness, as well as boldness and introversion.” Maybe Van Gogh tried to find balance from such contradictions for his violet irises too.

为纽约的Cherry定制的紫色礼帽。紫色是Cherry最喜欢的颜色之一：“紫色本来就是红色和蓝色的混合，是暖色和冷色的结合，冰与火的焦灼，热情与冷酷的纠结，奔放与内敛的折磨。”梵高的紫色鸢尾大概也在这样的矛盾中寻找平衡。

soleil levant 日出, 2015. Hand painted cotton fascinator base; aqua sinamay fabric from London; vintage purple flower from an Iranian bookstore in Boston; ivory sinamay shush trim from London; pearl from Hansi; vintage Christmas Tree cookie cutter from New York

给巴黎的王袁旭(Louis)定制的蓝色小礼帽，Louis很爱烘焙，因此决定做一款像甜点的帽子。为“日出”上色时参考了莫奈的《日出.印象》(Impression, soleil levant)，笼罩在雾气中的海港在橘色朝霞中慢慢苏醒。帽子上有一枚圣诞树形状的饼干模具，来自2011年在纽约东村淘得的一套古董烘焙工具。

Purple Star 紫星, 2015. Hand painted cotton fascinator base; golden shining yarn from Brooklyn; ivory goose feather from London; vintage purple star flower from an Iranian bookstore in Boston; Swarovski crystal chain from New York.

I got this kind of star-like purple flower by chance in an Iranian’s second-hand book store in Boston. It reminds me of the summer nights spent in my grandma’s yard in Chengdu when I was little. The air is not that clear in Chengdu; a few stars flicker tirelessly and vaguely. Now it belongs to Feng Yuan in Chengdu. It is the second hat I custom made for her, after the first one got lost on its way from New York to China.

这种像星星一样的紫色小花是在波士顿一家伊朗人开的旧书店里偶然淘得。它让我回想起小时候在外婆家院子里度过的夏夜。成都的空气并不清澈，依稀有几颗星星不知疲倦地眨着眼睛。现在属于成都的冯媛，是第一顶为她定制的帽子在纽约到成都的路上走丢后重新给她做的一顶。

For Yilin 给一林, 2015. Black and white vintage felt hat base found in New Haven; black and white ribbon rose; vintage daisy and yellow flowers from an Iranian bookstore in Boston; purple ostrich feather from London; vintage golden and pearl earing from New York.

Yilin has been a good friend of mine since our childhoods. We share love for writer Sanmao, obsession with old stuff, fascination of literature and art, and longing to be a world traveller. When we were in high school, Yilin and I often sat along wide streets at dark, moonless nights, drinking beer, enjoying ice cream, talking and laughing...Sometimes those restless street boys would whistle to us, but I never felt afraid when Yilin was with me. We explored streets and alleys on bicycles with loud laughters. We wept for romantic loves that faded away. Now Yilin is married and settled in Germany, and I couldn’t be present at her wedding due to visa issue. Time flies, as it has been four years since I saw her last time. I am assured that this fairy like girl finally found a home to return to after the twists and turns of her love journey. But I look forward all the more to her new life in a foreign land, with so many stories untold.

一林是我从小到大的好友，我们分享对于三毛的喜爱，对于旧物的痴迷，对于书籍和艺术的衷情，和对于世界旅行的向往。高中的时候，我和一林会坐在没有月光的大马路上，晃着腿喝酒吃冰淇淋，谈天，大笑，路过不安分的男孩子对我们吹口哨，但有她在身旁，我什么都不怕。我们曾一起大笑大叫着骑车冲过大街小巷，也曾一起为每一段恋情黯然神伤。现在一林远嫁德国，我因为签证原因，没法参加她的婚礼。转眼又是四年不见，不过精灵般的女子的跌宕爱情终于有了个归宿。但我更期待她在异国他乡的新生活，又有多少故事可以诉说。

Dessert Flower 沙漠之花, 2015. Hand painted silk fascinator base; vintage flower pin from New York; purple ostrich feather from London; black spot crin from London.

“She is the daughter of the desert. Extreme heat, drought and poverty, she’s been through all of them, in addition to the most dreadful ordeal of her life - the brutal female genital mutilation. Nevertheless, she is still strong and beautiful like desert flowers after the rain.” Desert Flower, a movie based on the popular autobiography of Somalia-born supermodel Waris Dirie, tells the true story of Dirie’s escape from her childhood nightmare in Somalia and became a global supermodel. She later devotes herself into women’s liberation movement, and remains an activist against female genital mutilation.

“她是沙漠之女，她熬过炎热、干旱和贫穷，也经历过人生最可怕的考验——残忍的割礼，但她仍像沙漠雨后绽放的花朵一样坚强而美丽。”电影《沙漠之花》是根据出生于索马里的黑人模特华莉丝•迪里的自传畅销书改编。华莉丝从索马里沙漠中走出到成为世界顶级名模，后投身于妇女解放事业，致力于反抗割礼。
