I’m so excited to be able to share these images from a shoot earlier in the year… starting with our newest set of styles, inspired by the traditional Chinese cheongsam/qipao dress.

Although this was originally conceived as a dress, I wanted to offer it as separates as well for folks who might be sized differently on the top and bottom (smaller bust and bigger hips, or bigger bust/chest and smaller hips, etc), or just prefer the versatility of being able to combine these pieces with other tops and bottoms.

One of the original ambitions of Trued Apparel was to be able to incorporate textures, fabrics and styles from Southeast Asia and my family’s background in that region, but Covid (and now various other world events) keep getting in the way. Based on the popularity of these styles though, I’ll keep pushing it where I can. I’m just excited to finally be starting on this path!

Happy Pride! 🌈🌈 Of course, in this community of alt fashion we all know that Pride continues all year round, but in the current national/global climate we can take this opportunity to be louder than ever. This is your reminder that you should wear whatever the hell makes you feel good!

Thank you to again for being an amazing model of this new style, the Cheongsam Dress, which is meaningful to me personally and now also imbued with memories of a wonderful day in the studio with friends (, .ltaing) 🖤🖤

This time last weekend I was in Leipzig, Germany at ! This was my second time there (last time was just a test of a day or so) and we were there for the full length of the festival-- so we got to see a lot more music, and a lot more of the city of Leipzig, which is roughly the size of Boston population-wise!

I got to meet the wonderful in person, finally, (though we didn't get a picture, oops 😛) and connected with some Boston friends out there that go every year. Hopefully we can pull off going back again in 2027!

Our Asymmetrical Zipped Tunic is a sleeper hit 🔥 The loose-fitting garment floats away from the body for a drapey fit, while the asymmetrical hem adds interest and an option to unzip to reveal contrast bottoms from skirts to pants or more layered tunics underneath.

Thank you .murmurations for this lovely review!
