Speaker Bio

CHENPENG is a unisex fashion brand specializing in seasonal outerwear and on the basis of “one-size fashion”, a concept conceived by the brand’s Founder Peng Chen while studying at London College Fashion. Interested in the under-representation of different body sizes in fashion, Mr. Chen [ES1] explores the universal beauty of forms through fashion. His designs focus on iconic puffer jackets that accentuate personal features while at the same time search for the uniformed shapes that are friendly and celebratory to all different bodies. As Creative Director of CHENPENG, he firmly believes in his vision for fashion and thoughts on the industry. Alongside running a commercially successful independent brand focused on practical and functional clothing, Mr. Chen still pursues highly creative ideas that are expressive and indulgent. He is also an avid advocate for sustainability in fashion.
 
CHENPENG is now one of the leading young fashion brands in China. It was founded in London in 2015 and was then relocated to Shanghai. The collections have been stocked in over 13 countries and regions and in more than 100 outlets. Mr. Chen has received numerous awards and recognition for his work, including the 2022 Designer of the Year at the Bazaar Design Awards, semi-finalist for the 2022 LVMH Prize, appointed Chief Costume Designer for the Beijing Winter Olympic Games Opening Ceremony, winner of the 2021 Yu-Prize, chosen for Forbes Asia’s 30 Under 30 list in 2017, and more.
