When people think of me, they usually picture black lipstick, twin ponytails, heavy boots, and a stage covered in lights. That part of me will never change. But one of my favorite things about being an artist is discovering how different cultures can inspire the way we express ourselves.

For this photo shoot, I stepped into the incredible world of Japanese fashion, drawing inspiration from Visual kei, original cosplay, and the bold graphic energy of manga-inspired editorial design. What surprised me most wasn’t how different it felt—it was how familiar it felt. Goth fashion and Japanese street style both celebrate creativity, individuality, and having the confidence to wear exactly what makes you feel like yourself.

From the neon streets of Tokyo to the magazine layouts bursting with color, typography, and graphic design, every page of TOKYO DISTORTION became a celebration of self-expression. I loved seeing my usual style reimagined through a completely different creative lens while still feeling unmistakably like… me.

One of my favorite surprises from the shoot was seeing myself transformed into a collectible Tokyo Distortion Edition figure. I wish it were real because I’d absolutely put one on my own shelf! Maybe one day. Until then, we’ll just have to pretend they’re already sold out.

I hope this collection inspires you to explore something new, mix different styles together, and never be afraid to stand out. Fashion isn’t about following someone else’s rules—it’s about telling your own story.

See you in Tokyo… or at least in the pages of TOKYO DISTORTION.
