The 38th "Taiwan Fashion Design Award" has unveiled its preliminary results, revealing unparalleled creativity and prowess from 543 aspiring designers hailing from 23 countries and regions. This year’s competition was scrutinized by an international panel of fashion experts, including Tomonori Matsui, founder of One-O Fashion PR in Japan; veteran designer Dai Fujiwara; DOUCHANGLEE Creative Director Stephane Dou; Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Fashion Director Stephanie Kuo; group Publisher and COO of Hearst Taiwan Ellen Yang; and Charlotte Chiang, Design Department Director of the Taiwan Textile Federation, who collectively selected 12 exceptional designs to advance to the finals.The judges commented, "We particularly valued the balance of style, the innovation in cuts, and the novelty. The uniqueness of the colors, prints, and textiles was impressive. In this competition, ethnic styles were less pronounced, while commercial applications were more prominent, significantly enhancing the market impact of these works. We look forward to seeing more complete and mature creative works in the finals."
