Play with color

Although Zhi is not sure whether she fully understands the meaning of this famous quote, she was deeply attracted to the words "color" and "bomb", and also the use of bright colors in Derain's early works.

Meanwhile, Color Bomb is the brand's first collection that features traditional knitting materials such as wool and cashmere.

But the collection also has classic elastic fibers, which allow the traditional loose knitwear to stretch.

Zhi says she spent a lot of time in the factory to study and discuss new techniques. And, as a result, they broke through the limitations of monotonous colors and simple patterns of seamless knitwear by using Jacquard.

Looking at Zhi's design works, it is not hard to see that she always attaches importance to technological breakthroughs.

But what is not known is that passion comes from her family background.

Zhi was born into a family that runs a machinery business in Fujian province.

And, as a science student in senior high school, she applied for an engineering place in university, hoping to help the family business.

Although she later opted to pursue fashion design, she has always been fond of machines.

So far, i-am-chen, which is a year old, is being sold by Lane Crawford and Browns in Britain.

Last month, it won the Business Potential Award at Shanghai Fashion Week.

For now, it may seem that the path to success for Zhi has been short and easy, but she went through quite a struggle to find her feet.
