Born in 2022, the designer's original brand was inspired by a dream.

Wushan goddess Yao Ji appears in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". She was confined on the Wushan platform and her spirit was transformed into eternal grass. When one talks of fairies, one usually thinks of sweet or delicate floral skirts.

In the dream of the designer of Fomes Japonica, the sparse figure is dressed in black gauze, standing in the deep mountains and valleys, with a confused and solemn expression, and alienated. Inspired by components like plants and flowers, the designer diligently chose pure natural textiles and gave them a natural feel using precise pattern making and state-of-the-art contemporary technology. It reveals the simple, calm, and gentle nature of women, if not endearing.

Ganoderma lucidum variety Purple Zhizhi bears the same name as the designer, Fu Linzhi. She previously attended the French ESMOD School of Fashion Design. Her clothing combines the clean simplicity of Western modernism with the traditional appeal of the new Chinese style, thanks to her interest for Chinese classical culture blended with contemporary design concepts.
