About SS24

The promotion of culture relies on every individual's boundless passion for the things and people they love. When it comes to popular culture, the youth are the key drivers. In cities around the world and during various fashion weeks, it is easy to observe how street culture and youth culture have transformed into various forms of creativity on display. Pop culture no longer adheres to traditional boundaries, and fashion no longer exists only on the runway. The infusion of culture has added depth to fashion, making youth culture the centerpiece of this season's opening show.

This season's Taipei Fashion Week still promises a multitude of exciting brand showcases that we can eagerly anticipate in October, bringing us astonishing manifestations of creativity. Additionally, this season has introduced the "off-calendar" events, including the "Contemporary Craft Fashion Crossover" exhibition and the "Her Artistic Fashion" fashion show by the Taiwan Women's Art Association. These events showcase the diversity and cross-disciplinary freedom of contemporary fashion, adding new dimensions to the fashion scene.

As you can hear, we have consistently emphasized the importance of culture. Because with culture comes industry, with industry comes greater possibilities, and it allows more talented and capable individuals to join in. This paves the way for a more promising future for Taiwanese fashion.

文化的推動，靠的是對所喜愛的人事物，懷抱著無比熱情的每一個人。提到流行文化，青少年，是關鍵。在世界各個城市、各個時裝週，都不難發現，街頭及青少年文化，變成了各種創意而被展現出來。流行不再有以往既定的界線隔閡，時尚也不只發生在伸展台上；文化的注入，讓時裝變得更有內涵，也因此，青少年文化成為本季開幕秀的主軸。

這一季的臺北時裝週仍然有非常多可以預期極為精彩的品牌秀，將在十月份為我們帶來令人驚艷的創意展現。此次更增加了「會外展off-calendar」，有「當代工藝時尚跨界」大展、臺灣女性藝術協會的「她的藝術時尚」服裝秀，呈現了現在時尚的多元、跨界的自由形式。

各位可以聽得出來，我們一直在強調文化。因為有了文化，就會有產業，就會有更多的可能性，就能夠讓更多有能力、有實力的人加入，讓臺灣時尚的未來，更有看頭。
