Ziggy Chen on the occasion of Paris Fashion Week Fall Winter 2022 – 2023, Ziggy Chen presents ILLUSAITS.

What is man’s relationship with the surrounding world? in a moment of estrangement, when the world tightens around us and relationships are intertwined thant to technology. Ziggy Chen pauses to reflect on this theme, giving rising to the new graphics for fall winter 2022 – 2023.

Illusaits is the name of new collection: a crasis of Illusion and Potraits, telling us of a reality filtered by a dreamlike state of consciousness. the dichotomy, dear to the designer, investigates dream and reality, fantasy and objective world, rational and irrational, past (present) and future. the fleetingness of dream reflects in the continously fluctuating graphics of contiguous waves, to have wearers sense like crossing a lucid dream.

Ziggy Chen continues to push the limits of natural fibers by combining traditional weaving techniques with forward-thinking dyeing and post-treatment methods.

The Focusof the collection is variations on the two-piece jackets, patchwork of different materials, and long coats with asymmetrical structure. The Hidden graphic of Illusants small doll-shaped icon embellishes the interiors of the coats, trousers and outerwear.

Fall Winter 2022 – 2023 collection is accompanied by genuine leather accessories tanned and crafted in Italy – shoes and bags – and eyewear in collaboration with Rigards.

An intimate and exploratory collection that lays the foundations of a new direction in the future.
