Taipei Fashion Week AW26: The First Year of Transformation and Elevation
Building an industry promotion platform that supports brand growth and a stage for the world to recognize Taiwanese fashion
Launched in 2018, Taipei Fashion Week has aligned with the international fashion calendar since 2021, shifting from an annual event to biannual Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter editions. Today, it has become a key industry platform where Taiwanese fashion brands express creativity and sustainability, connect with local culture, and step onto the global stage. Entering its ninth year, Taipei Fashion Week will undergo a comprehensive upgrade. By refocusing on brands, introducing diverse presentation formats, and strengthening industry support resources, the platform aims to empower brands to engage broader audiences, elevate production quality, and enhance market competitiveness.
Taipei Fashion Week AW26 Transformation and Elevation Highlights
In addition to the familiar Runway, AW26 will expand its participation formats in line with international trends by introducing Presentation and Event. With up to 15 showcases in total, the season redirects designers’ creative energy previously concentrated on the “Opening Theme Show” back to individual brand development and management.
Beyond the shows, Taipei Fashion Week will strengthen domestic and international market matchmaking. New initiatives include “one-on-one mentor consultation” service and “cross-disciplinary design” projects, supporting brands in connecting with markets and continuously building the capabilities needed to expand both locally and globally.
Experience Taipei Fashion Week AW26 Together
Taipei Fashion Week AW26 is not only a major industry event series, but also an open fashion experience for the public. This season expands the previously limited public-access Opening Show into the “Live” streaming zone, removing seating constraints and allowing audiences to watch designers’ latest collections in real time at the venue.
In addition, the specially curated “Editor’s Pick Curated Market” adopts the “editor’s pick” curatorial concept, bringing together apparel, accessories, jewelry, and lifestyle brands that combine strong design language with everyday wearability. Visitors can experience design details up close, feel the materials, and purchase items to take home. Adjacent to the event, the Taipei IN Style Tradeshow, not only facilitates professional negotiations between brands and international buyers, but also welcomes the public to explore and discover more fashion brands onsite.
BRAND IDENTITY
Brand Identity 2.0: Repositioning Taipei Fashion Week’s Platform Role
This brand identity is designed and overseen by Creative Director Yen Po-Chun of Yen Design, with “intersection and presentation” as its core visual concept, responding to the unique cultural qualities Taiwan has long demonstrated—a coexistence of diverse backgrounds, the interweaving of different generations and value systems, and the gathering and transformation of creative energies from both within and beyond the island. Drawing on the linear structures of the initials T/F from “Taipei” and “Fashion,” the identity employs linear compositions and open frameworks to symbolize the ongoing dialogue and mutual generation between city and fashion, life and industry. The motion identity, created by Second Nature, features multiple lines weaving together at varying rhythms and directions, representing the exchange and collision of diverse perspectives and creative energies within Taipei, radiating a multifaceted fashion spectrum.
Rather than defining a single aesthetic for fashion, Version 2.0 seeks to frame “Taiwanese fashion” as a state of constant flow and ongoing generation. Much like Taiwan’s own cultural character—open, hybrid, and highly adaptable—the system adopts an extensible and flexible structure capable of accommodating design voices from different backgrounds and aesthetic positions, allowing every brand to be clearly seen, while retaining its own distinctiveness and point of view, on the same platform. The brand identity also functions as a visual coordinate system that reflects the city’s spirit, island culture, and industrial momentum, marking Taiwan fashion’s contemporary position—rooted in Taipei, reaching outward through exchange, and building inward through accumulation.
