Flaviyake, a London-based singer in electronic style, has designed a dress in the color of a real sea shell. She spent two weeks on sewing her dress, which boasts 1,800 glass beads. The scarf with seahorse print appeared in this video and the T-shirt with faces were designed by herself as well.
Flaviyake always designs accessories and creates original looks for her music videos. She has already designed androgynous sunglasses and a bow tie in the shape of an owl face for her music video 'Techno Love,' a collar/crown made of 17 photos of music icons for 'The Magic Hit,' and panda sunglasses for the video 'Because I'm a Doll.'
Flaviyake is a combination of her Italian name Flavia and a Japanese ending. She created her artist name under influence of a fashion collection of the Japanese designer Issey Miyake.
