Growing up in Hong Kong to a matrilineal family, Kit Wan learnt from an early age the power of defying preconceived ideas, structures, and patterns. And it was his grandmother who, unconsciously, influenced him to become a fashion designer. Now, he’s founded his brand,
Kitwan Studios, through which he defies the binary system, beauty standards, and boring clothing. But he goes beyond that. By dividing the brand’s focus into two disciplines – art projects and fashion collections –, Kit gets to experiment with the limits of what’s wearable, avant-garde, or purely sculptural.
