Made in a small Parisian atelier, Peng Tai's ethereal dresses are modern heirlooms.
“It is about the balance between nature and humans—and between humans and clothing,” the designer Peng Tai says, attempting to describe the ethereal, almost ephemeral quality of his creations, a strangely affecting, oddly romantic collection he offered during Paris Fashion Week last month.
“We produce everything ourselves,” Tai says in his showroom in the 11th arrondissment, which after Fashion Week will revert back to his live-work space, with three areas divided into sections for cutting, sewing, and dying and where a team of around 10 artisans will create the entire line. Tai grew up in Taiwan, graduated from the London College of Fashion, and has shaggy hair reminiscent of a 1960s British mod.
Tai insists that as other fashion behemoths get bigger and bigger, his commitment to staying small remains fierce. No two garments are exactly alike, yet you would expect variations in clothes that are not made on any assembly line but instead with a single person in charge of a whole garment. “That way you put emotion in it!” he says. “I love to communicate and share the same values.
