Success
Chen's success started at a very young age, attending one of the top art colleges in London. Chens focus was mainly on romantic and rebellious spirit, which was major for her career and her work, that reflected upon her fusion towards Eastern and Western style. In 2014, Chen was named one of top 5 designers of CSM 2014 Press Show by I-D Magazine. That was important for Chen's career of becoming a designer, which eventually have a positive impact in her future. Later in the year, after Chen's graduation, she moved back to China where she started her own label as a professional designer. Her success was shown by the reflection of owning over 100 internal retailers. In my perspective, being able to collaborate with top known brands such as H&M, adidas Originals, M.A.C, McDonald's, and etc. is by far successful.

Clothing/Inspiration
"Angel Chen's goal is not to set trends, but rather to create carefully crafted and long-lasting garments that the wearer can cherish for years to come" stated by L'Officel USA.
