Jenny Feng, 22, from Guangzhou, China
What is your mission?
To push boundaries and see what I am capable of creating, and to make garments that evoke feeling. [For example,] my thesis collection was inspired by Chinese landscape painting [and] features handwoven textiles constructed out of repurposed textiles that my grandfather kept in the basement from a sewing factory that he used to manage. My own curiosity keeps me questioning the possibilities of how design can be applied to the body.
How does the industry need to change to move forward?
The industry should convert exclusively to 3D design and other CAD software to prototype garments and eliminate excessive sample making. Fashion companies should implement on-demand manufacturing rather than mass-producing fast fashion.

What is your mission?
To create sustainable, convertible, unusual, and fun words for every “body” with the inspiration that I get from the happiness inside me. I believe that designing fashion is like creating new words—or transforming existing words—to develop a visual language. This way, people can then tell their own stories through their clothes. I support body positivity and diversity. I respect and want to protect nature. And most importantly, I see myself not only as a designer but as an artist.
How does the industry need to change to move forward?
The fashion world needs to design for and include all types of people without categorizing them. People from any race can be models; humans of all sizes are still humans. Clothes should be designed without gender. Fast fashion is great because it lends us the opportunity to dress beautifully at an accessible price point, but it can be improved with eco-friendly and cruelty-free materials and production.

What is your mission?
To design knit textiles in an interdisciplinary research and development space, and create innovative solutions to existing challenges. I came to design from a math/science background, so for me knitwear is the perfect fusion of the technical and the creative in a single form.
