CULTURAL FASCINATION is a celebration of China’s rich textile heritage. Traditional and historical textiles are more than decorative—they reflect a culture’s identity and offer endless inspiration for contemporary design. This collection draws from the intricate textiles of China’s ethnic minority groups, inspired by the Attire and Adornment Exhibition of Ethnic Minority Groups at the Museum of Ethnic Costumes, Beijing Institute of Fashion and Technology (available on Google Arts & Culture).

These highly patterned and meticulously crafted fabrics showcase a variety of textile techniques, providing a vast foundation for creative exploration. Their unique combinations will serve as the technical backbone of this collection. I will reinterpret traditional motifs and color palettes, adapting them to align with current trends while preserving their cultural essence.
