Angel Chen, Chagee infuse traditional crafts, tea culture in designs
Chen also collaborated with textile groups to develop functional denim fabrics and camel wool yarn. These two innovative fabrics not only preserve the texture of traditional materials but also enhance their functionality through modern technology, expanding their application in fashion design.
In addition, Chen has also innovated traditional indigo dyeing techniques. Traditionally, indigo dyeing was limited to producing blue hues, but through collaborative innovation with Chen's team, the dyeing process can now create vibrant multicolored patterns using solely natural plant dyes. This innovation not only preserves the foundation of Chinese textile culture but also enhances the modern practicality of traditional techniques.
"I believe that China is a magnificent fusion of diverse cultures. In my eyes, the new Chinese style embodies the beauty of the nation and the world. It represents beauty in sharing, with a variety of possibilities," expressed Chen.
