Bio
Robin Hu Jun-Cheng is a Rising Talent of the Redress Design Award 2024. He holds a BA and MA in Fashion Design from Shih Chien University.
“Sustainable design is the future. To make consumers more environmentally conscious, designers must first lead by example.” – Robin Hu Jun-Cheng
For his Redress Design Award collection ‘Revolve & Revive’, Robin was inspired to reflect the dynamic and static beauty of life in clothing. He integrates the ceramic crafting techniques of rotating, pulling, and shaping to his garments, while glaze printing adds a feeling of fluidity. The designs are adjustable according to body shape with straps, drawstrings, and elasticity, so that one item can fit multiple sizes. This reduces inventory issues and increases longevity through versatility.
As part of the Rising Talents programme, Robin was mentored by Vickie Au, Founder, V Visionary Design Studio; and Redress alum Juliana Garcia Bello, Founder and Designer, Garcia Bello.
