In its Fall Winter 2025–2026 Haute Couture offering, By FANG transcends traditional tailoring with a meditative exploration of zhezhi—the ancient Chinese art of paper folding. This quiet craft becomes the collection’s architectural core, transforming fabric into a language of folds, curves, and restraint. Rather than serving as embellishment, these sculptural pleats define each silhouette, rendering garments as wearable origami—precise, poetic, and profoundly deliberate.

The palette begins in hushed tones: blush, ivory, and cream swirl through tulle and satin, evoking garments that feel drawn in air rather than sewn by hand. Sheer constructions balance delicacy with discipline, their embroidered bodices anchoring movement in place like silk calligraphy frozen mid-stroke. A transparent gown, layered and lifted by a masterful chest embroidery, offers a moment of serene virtuosity—a floating paradox of softness and strength.

Geometry enters as the narrative sharpens. A minimalist gown, marked by rhythmic black squares on white, reads like a living blueprint—fashion as diagram and meditation. Voluminous arcs and calculated voids sculpt negative space with intent, elevating emptiness into design. The visual tension between expansion and containment speaks to a brand that thrives in quiet complexity.

As the collection deepens into black, structure becomes more assertive. Mesh and satin interplay with graphic discipline, reinforcing the label’s reverence for controlled construction. The final chapter arrives in red: lustrous, architectural, and unforgettable. A lattice-knit dress clings like a second skin, turning softness into strength. The closing look—an opulent red skirt paired with an intricately beaded bodice—bridges philosophy and form, power and poise.

In this collection, By FANG doesn't just design clothing—it engineers serenity. Couture becomes equation. Fabric becomes thought. And zhezhi, once a meditative tradition, becomes the soul of a silhouette that is both calculated and transcendent.
