The brand 16：9WingWang was created after my graduation, it represents the mode of my understanding of fashion design. Wing Wang is my name, 16:9 is a scale, I attach much attention to the scale of the clothing, and once made several modifications to a same cloth, the scale is the most important factor is clothing, and it is also a balance. Clothing can be full of design, it can also be market-oriented, but the control of the scale is essential and can not be neglected, it needs accuracy like gold split point.
The brand designs its clothing with the focus on the needs of the modern women who are pursuing an artistic lifestyle, maximize favorable factors and minimize unfavorable ones, with wearing feeling as its premise, so it does not focus on the same age group, on the design trend, there will be no exaggerations on design, but there will be some daring design elements, both simple and popular, give the wearer plenty of freedom with the feeling of space and ideal, it will also be able to adapt to the needs of different occasions, take into account the various levels and roles, show unique personal taste and the ideal creative elements, it can be described as the combination of dynamics and statics, of hardness and softness.
I firmly believe that clothing design brings happiness to people. Design is an excellent expression of my life, catching a good shot, taking part in exhibitions and getting hands-on experience are the inspirations of my increasing designs, with the growing of my age, the sense of design is changing, the only thing that does not change is my persistence for design, it propels me forward and lead me to the series of “Emerging”. Black, white and gray are the mature color in my habit, they and the more acute color–rose red, sapphire blue and lemon yellow that with a strong visual impact I use this year organize my design.
It has been 7 years since I graduated from the University of Northumbria and started designing, from a graduated designer then to a freelance red carpet dress designer for stars now, from film clothing stylist to the funder of the Ying Sheng International Training Institution, I am starting to know that design is fun, I like to find design inspiration from various attempts, inspiration is the source, but it is also the bottleneck, I regard these years’ experience as my inspiration for creation and inject it into my design, it seems i am recording my own growing journey, so I name it “Emerging”.
Public projects:
I took part in 2007 China Design Hall of Fame Awards Ceremony, raised fund for Interior Design Education and Research Fund in China by organizing charity sale, the raised fun was to be spent on the financial aid for poor college students and research and development of interior design industry.
I took part in the following items as a designer:
In 2007, the fashion show of the cross-border “architectural elements”. A design team that was cleverly made up of famous painter, sculptor, furniture designer, esthetician, fashion designers in the art field, and the show consisted of dozens of designers’ clothing works, which interpreted architectural elements and fashion taste from different aesthetic perspectives, and it was met with shock waves; it was our heartfelt support for the charity sale, and offered help to the poor college students and interior design industry.
As a professional lecturer at Ying Sheng International Training Institution and an art instructor at the Beijing Institute of Clothing, for years I nurture talent for the field of fashion design and China’s fashion design industry, more and more students are learning expertise in world’s famous schools, and make contributions to the fashion industry at home, I instructed students to participate in a number of competitions at home and abroad, and have received excellent rankings, the most recent one was Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province the Cocoon Cup Ladies Designer Competition, and got a Silver Award, and a student’s work was accepted by a famous foreign brand MCM and is to be put into production and sales; students’ works appear on the fashion magazine for many times, the lists can go on and on. All of that will promote the rapid development of China’s fashion industry.
When the Porcelain Doll Choir sang for the first time, Sun Yanzi encouraged and supported them, Southeast TV show host Guan Yi appealed to the public’s love, as a designer, I designed their singing costumes.
The Porcelain Dolls are all like singing, and they all have a beautiful voice, for years they dreamed of gathering all the Porcelain Dolls across the country and do chorus, this dream has been realized in this year’s conference, the Porcelain Doll Choir started the chorus on the Second Porcelain Doll National Patient Conference, together they sang Sun Yanzi’s “Tomorrow’s Memory”. They showed their warm and positive side, brought climax to the audience, and won rounds of applause from the audience, they come from all over the country, the 21 Porcelain Dolls are age from 6-37.
Another highlight before the singing of the Porcelain Dolls is that when Sun Yanzi learned the story of the Porcelain Dolls and the performance of their choir, she specially recorded a VCR to show her encouragement and blessing for them. The little Porcelain Dolls in presence were greatly moved, with the support from the star they surely will become more positive! I offered my support along with Fujian Southeast TV presenter Guan Yi, I talked with them about the dress and color they would like to wear for their first singing performance and their dress were costume tailored by eyeballing, they truly realized their dreams and achieved the most beautiful scene on the stage. After the choir’s first singing performance, a line of more than 20 of them were to be invited to Fujian Southeast TV to record programs!
