Feng Chen Wang Grows Older and Wiser for SS25

Must read

Chinese-born, London-based designer Feng Chen Wang is growing older and wiser by the season. She has become a mainstay on the Paris Fashion Week schedule, exploring her childhood and cultural upbringing across co-ed collections packed with history. For Spring/Summer 2025, Feng Chen Wang shut down the underground halls of Palais de Tokyo with an ultra-modern offering taken from the future.

SS25 expands on Feng Chen Wang’s signature deconstructed techniques with a novel edge, delivering 35 menswear looks complete with colossal shoe covers and a crackled UGG Tasman collaboration. The collection arrived in stages, from solemn greys to wearable khakis and transitional browns. First, office-ready looks were tied together with teal-hued neckties, covered with pocketed utility jackets, netted polo shirts, and punctured cardigans. Gradient denim outerwear and matching cargo pants went from beige to white in a flash while deconstructed suiting accessorized with four pairs of rectangular shades.

Further down the line, double-waisted dip-dyed denim was crafted with asymmetrical seams for a classic Feng Chen Wang look, accompanied by doubled button-downs and pixilated graphic tees with abstract globes. When we thought the show was over, Feng Chen Wang ushered eight more looks down the runway, seeing models stomp in slow motion wearing sleek and refined eveningwear. They all donned cream, brown, or black rubber shoe covers that stole the show, seeing Feng Chen Wang prove her multi-faceted abilities for SS25.
