Cara Yoshimi's original design was showcased in the design exhibition at the ITAA conference, after a rigorous double-blind peer review process (photo right). The accepted designs showcase innovations using industry design software and zero-waste design methods, including upcycling and recycling garments and fabrics. Cara’s design was made from a kimono donated by the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii (JCCH) and reimagined as "Re. Doll Haus XY," inspired by a specific Gothic Lolita genre that elements into masculinity and femininity within a single look with garments that have ninja (a type of spy-like warrior during the Samurai age) concept. Cara was mentored by Minako McCarthy. Congratulations, Cara!
