"Home is where your heart resides, and home is who you are with."
– #FengChenWang

There's no place like home and it's here, in Feng's birthplace in Fujian, southern China, where we lay our scene.

Feng looks to her childhood home - number 239, which is embroidered on garments throughout the collection - and takes inspiration from the quotidian; things that evoke a sense of home, or memories of her family and friends. Feng riffs on the 'boyfriend shirt', seeing it as a garment imbued in emotion, perhaps the keepsake of a former lover. Meanwhile she renders denim worn, suggesting that it has been just that - worn, perhaps by an older sibling. She employs color to the same end, selecting a gold like the sun you see on the journey home, and a warm orange like the sun when you finally get there. Details include long and winding strips of cotton tape that twist and turn, much like that journey home often does.

While Feng now splits her time between Shanghai, London and New York, it's clear that she hasn't forgotten about her home - no, she carries it inside of her.
