This season, Lane Crawford nurtured a collaboration between Christine Lau, founder of fashion label Chictopia, with one of the world’s most established brands, TUMI, to create a unique partnership that marks the luxury travel luggage specialists’ first collaboration with a Chinese designer.

We are proud to present an exclusive collection of limited-edition travel and bag accessories that feature an assortment of TUMI’s best-selling products this month.

Inspired by the “father of the modern circus”, the British equestrian and inventor Philip Astley, Chictopia’s collection features signature playful prints inspired by the fantastical world of the Big Top. Swinging monkeys, quirky elephants and other whimsical elements bring a bold and humorous personality to each piece.

Born in Beijing and raised in Hong Kong, Lau graduated from renowned fashion institution Central Saint Martins before launching her label, Chictopia, in 2009 at the age of 24. Last year, she was invited to join Lane Crawford’s ‘Created in China’ program, in which we nurture and champion new and emerging talent from the region. Lane Crawford is proud to facilitate this unique partnership between Chictopia and TUMI, opening up a different category for Lau and an opportunity to showcase her talents on a global scale.

“I believe that fabric is the key to fashion and I enjoy designing quirky fabric prints for each of my collections. For this collaboration, I created playful yet elegant prints to appeal to independent, trailblazing women who have a passion for fashion and travel.”
