Innovative and dynamic, Taipei Fashion Week did not disappoint this year with some designers shining brighter with their societal and fashion insights.
In a country that privileges creative freedom, Taipei Fashion Week reflects Taiwan's rich cultural narratives, street culture, and historical depth, fostering international dialogue through fashion, while highlighting innovation and cross-disciplinary partnerships.
5 Outstanding Designers From Taipei Fashion Week
For the Spring/Summer 2025 event calendar, designers were paired with graphic artists to create collections that celebrate Taiwan as a hub of fashion innovation and youth culture embracing the ethos of “integrating global vision with local culture”.
DYCTEAM × Raimochi
At the intersection of functionality and warmth, DYCTEAM presented a collection that revolved around the theme of "defining oneself." Drawing inspiration from everyday life, the brand employed practical materials and jacquard denim designs to craft a unique style. Meanwhile, Raimochi’s "No-Swear Boy" translated the vibrant energy of Taiwan’s streets into bold, resilient imagery, characterised by bright colours and a dynamic illustration style influenced by music.
Seivson
As a heartbeat resonated through the venue, mist enveloped the stage, setting a surreal backdrop for Seivson’s S/S25 show. Models showcased bare skin adorned with Seivson's logo scars, symbolising this season's theme of "Traces" – the imprints and stories every woman carries. The collection stripped fashion back to its essence, featuring signature deconstructed tailoring that reimagines classic trench coats, alongside various pleating techniques in jackets and skirts. Layered with everyday pieces, the collection offers a rich interplay of dimension and texture.
Chow De Hommes
Creative Director Billy found inspiration in the rebellious spirit of Generation Z and contemporary societal issues for his collection. Titled "Invisible Victims," this collection delves into the often-overlooked aspects of modern society, questioning the unseen struggles behind celebrated ideals of freedom. The concept is intricately woven into the details of the garments, reflecting a poignant exploration of personal narratives hidden in plain sight.
Jenn Lee
The S/S25 collection from JENN LEE is a testament to instinctive creativity, rooted in the belief that design requires no formula. Inspired by the spontaneity of childhood, the designer transformed crumpled paper into organic shapes and silhouettes, embodying a carefree youthful spirit. This unstructured approach breathes whimsical imagination into the collection with unexpected geometric forms and playful strokes that evoke a sense of freedom and possibility.
#DAMUR X Weiweiboy
The #DAMUR S/S25 collection challenged traditional gender norms and celebrates self-identity. Designer Huang Shishun draws from a childhood memory of being unable to wear a tutu in a ballet performance due to societal expectations. This experience ignited his passion for deconstructing gender stereotypes through fashion. The collection features a flowing, knee-length skirt reimagined from a traditional male tie and a solemn black jacket adorned with neon ruffles, striking a balance between strength and softness. Utilising large wave totems, asymmetrical designs, and multi-layered elements, the collection embodies the evolving landscape of genderless fashion.
Individual struggles and a quest for emancipation were core elements of these 5 designers who perfectly aligned with the spirit of freedom of Taipei that the country wants to elevate and defend through also by the means of fashion.
