About

Anyi Tang is inspired by her upbringing in Northeast China and the rich tapestry of life experiences she has encountered there. Tang is particularly drawn to how belief systems serve as anchors for the marginalised, particularly in the 1990s. These factors have shaped her design style, which blends the modest, reserved, and controlled qualities of the East with the strong structure of Western garments. Tang approaches their stories with a keen sense of emotion and aims to convey that, despite the challenges they face in life, they possess a poetic serenity and inner strength.
