Trend Hunter Rachel Bowman wrote about Chau Har Lee's graduate collection last year and we couldn't help but look upon her [sculptural creations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balenciaga-sculptural-earbuds) in awe--and a bit of trepidation at the thought of someone possibly wearing such... art.

With her latest designs, however, Chau Har Lee has moved a little closer to [feasibly wearable heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vida-collection). But do not fret, she has managed to hold onto her unique vision, making her new additions as equally awe-inspiring as those in her graduate collection.
