Frances Lu is a fashion designer currently based in New York City. Having grown up in China and studied fashion in the States, she offers a unique perspective on the diversity of eastern and western aesthetics. Her garments are edgy but not loud, elegant but not conventional. There’s a sense of subtleness in her use of color and texture that draws the audience. She often borrows inspiration from various media she came into contact with, such as literature, films, and photography. With a background in ceramics training, she transforms garments into wearable sculptural pieces.

Living in New York City, she is deeply driven by vigorous energy. She is interested in exploring the inner state of the human mind in her work. She believes that art should be able to express and heal; garments should complete a person on the inside by looking unique on the outside.
