Justin Chou, the fashion designer of JUST IN XX and the first Taiwanese to be selected to join New York Fashion Week, is in charge of the design of the opening ceremony outfit of 2021 Tokyo Olympics for Chinese Taipei, making a uniform full of culture, local vibes, and craftsmanship for Taiwanese Olympic athletes. The clothing in the Sustainable Fashion Show is extended from Olympic uniforms designed by Justin Chou. Inspired by the common memory of Taiwanese people, “window grating”, and the emblem of the Chinese Taipei Olympic Committee, “plum flower ”, it uses fabrics by the top Taiwanese functional textile manufacturers made from plastic bottles, industrial wastes, and non-toxic remade fabrics. The uniform is not only extremely functional but also demonstrates three core concepts, “concept sustainability”, “material sustainability”, and “technique sustainability”. The series recreates the design of window gratings with eco-friendly leathers, and assembles scrap materials into fashionable items. With traditional Taiwanese crafts and modern technologies, the designer delivers exceptional perspectives on sustainability in every detail.(cited from TAIPEI FASHION WEEK)
