The Way Of Chinese Designers (Map)

Original Designer People are respected. Design The circle slowly made its voice. China It will not be regarded as the hometown of copy cat again and again by the people all over the world.

 

On the first lady Michelle Obama Red Globe Jason Wu So far, he is still an independent fashion designer.

 

During the magazine period, one of the topics that I like to do most is to have almost every opportunity to do so every year. One of them is "local". Designer " For editors and reporters, this is a smart and safe topic. First, because of the annual circulation, it is very difficult to choose young designers who are new or younger. Because they are not well-known, most of them are not accustomed to face the media, so they have no airs. (of course, because there is no shelf at all), they are very friendly in conversation. In addition, because of the lack of experience in dealing with the media, they are often easy to tell the truth. Secondly, the number of local designers who can be called designers is really not many. Each of us should have some famous hardware such as talent or the financial strength behind it. Maybe it will be red again.

　　
However, over the past few years, I think now that most of the designers who have visited there are still at the same level, and few can go any further. Wang Yiyang, Ji Cheng and Qi Gang, who have become famous five or six years ago, seem to have no more names to remember. Most of the designers are fighting alone, every season is proofing, small show or simply static studio display, and then in small quantities into the country's small number of buyers shop, or simply open an official shop on Taobao. Round the cycle, small costs and small bodies catch the Jin and run on the elbow. The real money making jobs are mostly wholesale business, such as designing and making tooling for some brand employees. Designers are also very limited in their dealings, and sometimes they may have the opportunity to contact with commercial activities. The so-called industry forums or trade unions mostly pay money to meet their friends. For young independent designers, it is not easy to bear these costs.

　　
The slogan of making Shanghai a capital of creativity seems to have been reviving recently. But what is the creative capital seems to be a bit of a mess. For example, how many design brands, or how many creative companies? The output value, or even the number of so-called creative parks, should be up to standard. Instead, the most important resource of creative industry, creative talents, especially young independent designers, is hardly concerned about the outside world, let alone support. Their development space and future possibilities often depend on human dignity and luck. How to make these young designer designers develop as a group is a question that the industry should consider carefully.

　　
This may be a reference to Hongkong's practice. Hongkong Fashion Designers Association HKDFA is a completely non-profit organization. The only requirement for qualifications is the identity of the fashion designer. Every year, the association organizes the selection of a "distinguished dress Award", and the designers in the association also have the opportunity to show their clothing series. Every officer responsible for co ordination is committed by designer members. Voluntary registration is not mandatory. Designers are usually free to participate in various activities of the association, and they are more familiar with each other.

　　
Yang Qibin, chairman of HKDFA, said, "a single designer doesn't want to reason with a lot of media. Because he feels that he is not well-known enough, if there are 10 designers involved in every activity, he will always get more attention." The selection of outstanding personages, because of the gathering of celebrities and celebrities, can always attract a large number of media, so designers are able to expand their publicity. Because of perseverance, even if there is no government funding, every session can be funded by the support of sponsors.

　　
Fashion or creative industries, only existing designers and creative talents can live and live well, in order to attract more talents and resources into this industry. The indigenous designers can be respected. The whole Chinese design community has the chance to make a sound slowly, instead of being regarded as the hometown of copy cat by the people all over the world.
