TAYLOR LEUNG F/W 2015 - LEUNGAGE
"Connecting the genes of creativity between father and son"
June 2015, London
This season, TAYLOR LEUNG brings you into the realm of creativity between his father and himself.
Inspired by the bonding between his father and himself through art, LEUNGAGE - the linkage between the leungs, is a story about a creative landscape architect father and expressive fashion designer son in different artistic professions who shares the same faith in art and design. Firmly believing that his taste in art appreciation and the genes of creativity is inherited and derived from his creative father, TAYLOR LEUNG pays tribute to his father, KH LEUNG, for his years of artistic nurture.
LEUNGAGE infuses elements of landscape architecture into fashion design, incorporating functionality into aesthetics. The silhouette of leungage was delicately crafted through the experimentation of collages created from KH LEUNG's landscape architecture designs. By integrating the nature of geometric balance from the construction of blueprints into fashion, the structured silhouette of the collection is created.
The design concept focuses not only on the aesthetical beauty of decorative arts, but also lies in its functionality. the collection desires to mediate the artistic temperament of the Leung family through fashion design. Reflected through the search of Taylor Leung's design identity, this collection take elements from kh Leung's art and design works, and aims to reinterpret them in the form of fashion.
