SANKUANZ
SANKUANZ boasts a distinctive and playful approach to fashion that has gained a cult-like following in China and abroad. SANKUANZ's intriguing and unconventional style made Zhe a sort of eccentric enfant terrible in the Chinese mainstream fashion scene - he has been praised by many critics as one of the the most creative young talents in the industry. SANKUANZ designs reflect the expression of different cultures. Classical references are mixed with pop elements through the combination of razor-sharp tailoring, graphic playful prints, deconstruction and androgynous sporty silhouettes. The final result is well-balanced collections in their eccentricity. Each element, eccentric or classical, finds its proper place and highlights the others.
Pairing fragments from contemporary art with vintage sportswear and sleek uniforms, SANKUANZ reinterprets menswear with a rebellious voice, challenging the status quo while pushing constructive thought.
