Making Clothes A Silent World Language

Here world

The little editor of the net tells you that clothing is the language of dialogue with the world.

Ceng Fengfei's studio is located in the north of the 798 Art District of Beijing, a square away from the noisy Art Park.

Embroidered white shirts, loose cotton trousers and red leather shoes are all made up of their own designs.

Like his style of dress, the layout and display of the studio are also rich in Chinese style and artistic atmosphere.

Ceng Fengfei came from a small fishing village in Xiapu, Fujian. When he was a child, he dropped out of school due to family troubles and began to fish for more than ten years.

Because he likes painting, he often uses branches to paint on the beach in his spare time, and he draws tailor's draft with his tailor's elder sister.

Later, he walked out of the fishing village with his dream and came to the Xiamen University library as an administrator.

The time spent outside work is spent on reading and learning, and the dream of designers starts from this.

In 1993, Zeng Feng Fei went to the Central Academy of Arts and crafts for further education. After graduation, he set up his own studio and began his more than 20 years of costume design career.

"Some European clothing brands can integrate into their unique culture and customs. Why can't China's excellent traditional culture be reflected in costume design?" in this way, Ceng Fengfei created a brand named after his name in 2008, and devoted himself to the fashion design of Chinese style.

Men's wear design is a relatively difficult challenge, because there is not much room for men's clothing design, but it needs to convey more introverted and steady connotation in Chinese culture.

"Men's needs are in the heart, not the appearance, which is the responsibility of society."

Ceng Fengfei told reporters to take a look at the coat displayed in the room: the traditional Chinese "Swastika" woven by silk wool symbolizes the endless meaning; the red lining shows the inner passion and contrasts strongly with the dark grey fabric.

As a designer, Zeng Feng flew across many parts of the river.

He often carries bags to the countryside, to Tibet, and to villages inhabited by ethnic minorities. These ancient cultures attract his attention.

"Regional and local things can be pformed into high-end and fashionable.

Every time I draw and take a lot of pictures, I think about how to turn it into a pattern of life that everyone can understand. "

Therefore, some of his latest designs include the lacquer painting art of the people, some of them use the ice cracks in the broken pieces of porcelain, some from the rock paintings, both classical totem and ancient hieroglyphs.

Each element is a unique culture and style.

It has been shown just right.

As his understanding of traditional culture deepened, he felt more sensitive to art.

"When I read" a dream of Red Mansions ", I noticed that the girls discussed the plot of the popular patterns and styles of the palace together, and found that classical fashions came from the court. Reading Eileen Chang's novels is also deeply attracted by the period of the Republic of China.

He drew inspiration from his own reading materials, and twelve ancient patterns, such as the ancient river court auspicious patterns, appeared in his latest works.

Although Ceng Fengfei is now president of the company, he has his own studio in Xiamen, Suzhou and Beijing, but his self positioning is still a designer.

"Artistic design is the life of a designer, and the pattern of his mind is big, and the market structure will be big."

Nowadays, Feng Feng's works have attracted the world's attention every year in the international fashion week. He takes almost two to three design awards every year, and from celebrities to state leaders put on his clothes.

When Ceng Fengfei talked about his study in Politecn Milan, some people questioned the imitation of Chinese costume design to the West. Ceng Fengfei went to the stage to show himself his own costume design, to explain the Chinese cultural meaning of each totem and symbol, and to arouse the admiration of his foreign counterparts on the spot.

"Once I realized that only culture can win respect. Just like we have to talk with the world in our own language, clothing is also a language.

Someone asked me why I had to do the Chinese style that the market did not look good. I said there was no reason why I loved the traditional culture, as I did.

Love. "
