A new slant on ancient fashion sensibilities
Established in 1986 and retailing in Hong Kong, Beijing and New York since 1990, Blanc de Chine was the first brand in the world to translate Chinese philosophies into luxury fashions and lifestyle accessories. Standout examples of the company's unique aesthetic flair include sensual reimaginings of the classic Zhong Shan suit and traditional Qi Pao dress. Both designs ultimately transcend their 2-D nature to become a kind of body armour for their wearers. Literally meaning the "White of China", the name Blanc de Chine reflects 18th century French connoisseurs' adoration of Fujian porcelain. By breathing new life into ancient Chinese design concepts such as simplicity and harmony for a new generation, the company is once again ensuring the West is looking to the East for inspiration. While firmly rooted in the past, Blanc de Chine's designs encourage us to gaze into the future and achieve the timelessness of being "so ancient yet so modern".
