This collection draws inspiration from the understated glamour of 1930s Shanghai. Designed for modern women who seek refined, occasion-ready looks, the pieces reinterpret classic Qipao elements—such as Mandarin collars, curved seams, and fabric buttons—through a Western ready-to-wear lens.

The silhouettes are fluid yet structured, allowing ease of movement without losing form. Key fabrics include wool crepe, satin-backed silk, charmeuse, tweed, and heavy organza—chosen for their balance of drape, texture, and body.

The result is a collection that blends tradition and modernity, offering timeless elegance with a quiet cultural nod.
