Black Sheep Style
After kicking off Vauxhall Fashion Scout’s ‘Ones To Watch’ show at London Fashion Week, Ming-Pin Tien proves he is just that. With a focus on pattern cutting and a distinct view of fashion and beauty his designs focus on the conceptual, letting colour take a back seat as he blends textures and clean lines to make a statement. Inspired by body language, and rooted in the abstract, he is carving out how he interprets contemporary fashion.
