For me, luxury is about a personal attitude and an appreciation of craft. It is an innovative spirit based on traditional knowledge. The most powerful style for the new season? Really allowing yourself to be natural and effortless.

Creativity is fuelled by the need to be original in spirit. It needs freedom to flourish. China is changing very fast, but we risk losing the roots of our heritage in the process. It’s important to keep hold of these to stay true to who we are.

I love what I’m doing right now. Working in the creative realms of fashion is what motivates me. I always think positively – everyday is a new leaf. I try to contribute what I can to the local community, bringing creative ideas to the greater good.

The French singer and actress, Francoise Hardy is my beauty idol and my look is inspired by the 70’s with full eyelashes, black eyeliner and bright lipstick in red, neon pink and orange.

Style comes from the soul. I never wear something I don’t feel comfortable in, never spend more than 10 minutes choosing something to wear and never follow anyone’s style when wearing something for myself. Everything I wear has to be original – I have to be me.
