Ming Ray Clutching On To Whimsical Dreams

Ming Ray’s dream of becoming a creator of beauty came at an age when she spent her days in China and Singapore surrounded by stuffed toys, elaborate hair ties and the infamous Polly Pocket.

From the age of five Ming loved wearing embellished hair clips and ties. Each morning was spent carefully adorning her hair with a vast collection, her favorite butterfly hair ties sparked daily joy and were worn with pride. As Ming grew, Polly Pockets became the toy of choice for little girls the world over.

“At that age, it was the epitome of perfection and finery, the details are so exquisite. By having such a focus on the miniature world you are temporarily transported into its magical realms”. - Ming Ray on her love of Polly Pocket.

After a move to London in 2011, Ming graduated from London College of Fashion and honed her skills at the likes of Alexander McQueen and Jimmy Choo.

With this in mind, Ming Ray was born in London in 2015. The use of elements such as butterflies and stars were incorporated - subtle references to her beloved childhood treasures.
