The rather recently founded Apu Jan label is based in London. The Taiwan designer graduated from the Royal College of Art with an MA in Fashion Womenswear (Knitwear) and has already been dubbed the next Asian designer to watch. Unique forms are created through strong knitting and construction techniques. Patterns are simple yet imaginative, while graphics are sophisticated – a mixture of avant-garde couture and commercial appeal, resulting in an accessible ready-to-wear collection.
