Cheney Chan’s “Dream in Bloom” runway show continues to embody the brand’s distinctive identity. Chinese porcelain, a timeless element cherished by the designer, remains a central inspiration. This season, the collection explores ancient Chinese pottery techniques, specifically the traditional art of shaping and refining
Inspired by ancient ceramic techniques, the collection translates the beauty of pottery into clothing, with silhouettes shaped by the rotating lines created through the shaping and refining process.
“Dream in Bloom" is a tribute to flowers and butterflies. The designer has read numerous classical Chinese stories drawing inspiration from twelve characteristics: purity, courage, charm, resilience, endurance, passion, freedom, heroism, independence, clarity, responsibility and authenticity.
Using beloved flowers and butterflies as mediums, he constructs dreamlike story images in his mind. These images reflect the desire to transform from a cocoon into a butterfly, and from a bud into a blooming flower.
“Each flower symbolizes the delicacy and vitality of women; each butterfly embodies their transformation and radiance,” explains the collection notes.
