A video of some artwork from the same gig as the customized bears. I was inspired to make my own creepy-cute work in relation to my project from these pieces, weather that be in the check print, or elsewhere in my garment.

Here's some photos I took of jewellery in the V&A Alice: Curiouser and Curiouser exhibition. I thought these pieces would work well in a decora look as they're inspired by Alice in Wonderland, which links in well to the childlike fun nature of decora but also the darker themes of yami kawaii.
I was also inspired by how detailed they were and thought I could add detailed elements into my garments or accessories as well.

A photo taken in the Waste Age Exhibition at The Design Museum. As yami kawaii is fundamentally about mental health, there is a lot of medical imagery. You can often find reference to medical equipment in the accessories and prints of this style.

A photo of customized bears from a seller at a gig. I thought the combination of cute and creepy was very reminiscent of yami kawaii.

A photo I took in a giftshop in Broadstairs. I liked how all the colours worked together and I thought it was very decora esque.

These garments from YOSUKE (2000-10) were showcased at the V&A Alice: Curiouser and Curiouser exhibition. The designs were inspired by Vivienne Westwood and were made to contrast each other with one being 'punk lolita' and the other being 'sweet lolita'.
I was inspired from the layering, mix of different fabrics and patterns and the silhouette.
