The resolutions of Mr. Lee Lien Chuan Vice Minister of Culture of Taiwan.

... "We would like to integrate the upstream, middle and downstream stages of sustainable fashion and create an interdisciplinary fashion culture.
We would like to develop a talent cultivation model that perfectly fits the needs of the industrial chain and ensures endless creativity in the fashion industry.
We expect to build a platform that supports the coexistence and fusion of cultures. Ultimately, it will become an influential force in promoting diversity, equity and inclusion.

The opening show: "Respect the Craftsmanship : The Crossover Fashion of Traditional Performing Art and Traditional Crafts" is the DNA of Taipei Fashion Week: a fusion of "function, sustainability, interdisciplinarity, humanity and diversity". It is a collaboration between seven renowned designers and seven traditional craftsmen or artists.
The result of this collaboration is a unique collection. We hope that the 100+ years of cultural heritage and art will continue to merge into contemporary apparel"
