Remilia — Milady Maker

Milady Maker is a collection of 10,000 generative profile picture NFTs created by Remilia Corporation and launched on the Ethereum blockchain in August 2021. The collection features anime-style avatars in a neochibi aesthetic inspired by Tokyo street fashion subcultures. As Remilia's flagship project, Milady Maker became one of the culturally significant PFP collections from the 2021 NFT cycle, developing an active community and serving as a practical demonstration of the New Net Art principles that Remilia would later formally articulate.

The project emerged from aesthetic sensibilities that Charlotte Fang had explored through earlier creative work, combining Y2K nostalgia, anime aesthetics, and internet culture references into a cohesive visual language. The collection preceded the formal publication of the New Net Art Manifesto in March 2022, serving as a practical embodiment of concepts like post-authorship, network spirituality, and memetic circulation that would later be codified in Remilia's theoretical framework.

Milady Maker was developed by Remilia Corporation, the art collective founded by Charlotte Fang. The project emerged during summer 2021 as Remilia became integrated with what would later be termed the Vibe Shift scene, collaborating with writer Angelicism01 and connecting with the New York downtown art community. This period saw Remilia develop its distinctive approach to digital art and community formation, bridging the emerging post-internet art scene with cryptocurrency communities.

The collection drew from Fang's earlier work with Miya and the KALI/ACC milieu, translating the distributed authorship, experimental identity play, and post-ironic aesthetics of that movement into a more accessible and commercially viable format. According to Remilia, the project was positioned as an experiment in decentralized branding and network-native identity, representing the collective's first significant crossover between post-internet art and cryptocurrency communities.
