How to be a romantic in a digital age? Lane Crawford’s Creative Call Out Finalist and London College of Fashion alumni Junwei Lin thinks that everyone is, in their own way.

“Nobody's perfect and everybody has their own experiences. Something might have hurt you, people experience loss, everyone has their unique experiences with the people they meet and the relationships they form,” says the Xiamen native who at only 23 years old, has lived in Melbourne, London, New York and Shanghai. “I’m inspired by my own emotions at a certain moment, my own experience and comparing this with phenomenon in society and what young people are thinking.”

Often dipping into musings on human psychology and emotion, the designer’s menswear line references heritage fashion and subverts British dandyism – making it onto the pages of Schön! and GQ Magazine.
