Cindy Zhaohan Li

London College of Fashion

A Designer maker based in London, imagining a different kind of fashion. I've strived to harmonise design with artistic and personal expression. Each of my creations is aesthetically crafted, originating from a personal perspective, yet seamlessly connects with the universality of everyone’s daily life, embodying both practicality and beauty.

Un-Brush

Category: Accessories

Competitions: Fashion Competition 2025

UN-BRUSH is a collection of unconventional, wearable body brushes designed to reconnect us with our senses through natural touch. Made from sustainably sourced wood, hand-crafted bristles, and leather, each brush invites playful experimentation with bodily sensations while nurturing new forms of physical intimacy. Merging natural materials with the language of fashion and personal adornment, UN-BRUSH challenges the boundaries between tool and accessory. These objects are more than brushes — they are sensory companions, adornments, and provocations. By blending ergonomic research with emotional design, I turned seemingly mundane objects into meaningful experiences. The project exemplifies how design, when rooted in nature and empathy, can transform the everyday into something extraordinary — sustainable in material, intimate in use, and lasting in emotional value.

Working with our partners at Arts Thread to develop lifelong learning and career opportunities for students of fashion and design. Our partnership provides the opportunity to compete on a world stage, participate in industry led workshops, set up an outstanding portfolio and gain access to the resources that will kickstart careers in fashion and design.
