"Auntieverse City"

Parallel worlds of well-known acronyms like NASA, VOGUE, TESLA, and IKEA, each with an auntie twist. A culinary school, a fashion atelier, a sustainable transport manufacturer, and an interior design showroom, all coupled with sushi and auntie’s pet assistants.
"Auntie’s Fashion"
Boldfaced Auntie fashion on the catwalk, challenging traditional body stereotypes. Highlighting the unseen beauty of Aunties’ lives at home and the ingredients of classic auntie cooking turned into couture.

A commentary on the beauty industry, exploring exaggerated realities of facial masks, fashion acupuncture, machines, and non-invasive treatments. A spinoff narrative from “Auntie’s Spa,” a sushi-therapy wellness center.
