Yang Li is a fashion designer based in London. He currently is the creative director of his eponymous label Yang Li.

Early life

Li was born in Beijing and resided there for the first 10 years of his life. His mother was a translator and his father was a communist government worker and table tennis player. After moving to Perth, Australia at the age of 10, Li spent his isolated teenage years playing basketball and skateboarding, two sports whose style and expression through clothing were his first introduction to fashion.[1]

Career

Li dabbled in music and briefly studied law to please his parents, but ultimately decided to pursue fashion. Upon receiving a scholarship to Central Saint Martins in 2007, Li moved to London to study fashion. [1] After an internship under English designer Gareth Pugh, Li withdrew from the institution and moved to Belgium to intern under fashion designer Raf Simons. Following his experience described as "working in a creative kitchen", he launched his eponymous label in 2010.[2]

Li's first collection "Zero Hour", released in 2010, was shown through a short film in collaboration with filmmaker and photographer Scott Trindle, in which articles of clothing were cut and repaired in varying degrees, which he saw as an act of "subtle rebellion".[3] He proceeded to release three more collections before his Fall/Winter 2013 Paris debut women's collection, a show dubbed "phenomenal" by Vogue.[4] In 2014, he was shortlisted for the LVMH prize.[5] CLCC SA, a Luxembourg fashion fund who had also funded Raf Simons, made investments in Yang Li in 2015.[6] Li debuted his menswear line in January 2016 for Paris Fashion Week.[7] In 2017, he launched his collaboration label SAMIZDAT.[8]

Li is known for working with underground and cult musicians. For Li's Spring/Summer 2018 collection, the designer partnered with American singer-songwriter Michael Gira for a live performance to accompany his runway show at Palais de Tokyo in Paris. Other music collaborations include Blixa Bargeld of Einstürzende Neubauten, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Justin Broadrick, Keiji Haino, Jehnny Beth, Genesis Porridge, Psychic TV, Ramleh, KK Null, and Pharmakon.

Li's work has attracted a number of highly influential stockists, including SSENSE, Farfetch, Dover Street Market, and LUISAVIAROMA. [9]
