Like a traveler threading through time, Feng Chen Wang’s Spring Summer 2025 collection draws inspiration from ancient artifacts, unearthing the essential natural rhythms in material craftsmanship and silhouette design. The meticulously carved ceramics and redefined fabric textures capture the naturally occurring cracks in handcrafted clay. While contemporary in feel, they are infused with a futuristic vitality. Bamboo, a signature element of the brand, is handwoven by artisans, transforming into light lines. The delicate veins between clothing and accessories create a tranquil and comfortable natural environment.
Wang adeptly employs traditional fabrics like cloud silk (xiangyun sha) and fish roe resist-dyed (yuzi xie) fabric, integrating these precious handcrafted materials into her designs to create this modern “collector’s” collection. This series encapsulates the inspirations and thoughts that have long lingered in her mind, now finally expressed. Each piece in the collection resonates with a timeless elegance, bridging the ancient and the modern.
The profound emotions expressed by celadon green interweave with the restraint of chestnut brown, subtly painting the imprints of time on each garment.

The harmonious color palette evokes a sense of serenity and timelessness, paying homage to the rich cultural heritage from which it draws inspiration.
The unique footwear are, in fact, her sculptural works, cleverly incorporating the crackled glaze elements of porcelain onto their surface.
