The Feng Chen Wang Autumn Winter 24 collection transforms tea culture into a design language, demonstrating respect for nature and traditional culture while conveying independent thinking on contemporary values. Varied in form and colour, Wang represents a sense of freedom and a confident attitude for the community that appreciates her work. Autumn Winter 24 collection echos tea which was the starting point for the designer this season. Looking at the process of making tea which is extremely important to Wang’s cultural background. Deep mossy greens which originated as a traditional Chinese watercolour painting by Wang, digitally applied to the garments, a physical representation of the tea leaves found in Fujian. Earth browns come from the roasting process which the tea undergoes. Rich caramels and deep burgundies show the brewing stages of the loose tea. Tea sets are also cleverly interpreted as handbags, adding a playful element to the collection. The new bamboo bags and wooden handbags inject a rich Chinese cultural hue. Glasses this season feature bamboo arms, a symbol which has become synonymous with the brand. The silhouettes for Wang have past been louche and relaxed, this collection has a feeling of restraint, inspired by corsetry, waists this season are defined through pleats, belts on shin length coats and laces which have been cleverly strung into a classic tailored jacket. Focusing on silhouettes, bringing a new wave of character to the Feng Chen Wang bran
