DAN SPECIAL

Created by fashion designer
Zheng Xiao Dan, the brand
was inspired by ‘dan qing’, or
ancient Chinese calligraphy painting.
DAN designs are as delicate and
romantic as the spirit of the brand.

Zheng infuses the mysterious oriental
charm into modern European tailoring.
Each dress evokes beauty, sensitivity
and passion, exquisitely tailored to fit a
woman’s form with traditional oriental
elements. What makes Dan’s designs so
spectacular however, is that subtle playful
spirit combined with elegance. Some of
her works integrate Koi fish tails, slim
bamboos and Chinese folding fans,
showcasing a wondrous beauty that is
gentle yet vibrant.

DAN designs are anchored by the DAN founder and chief designer Zheng Xiaodan
philosophy ‘pursuit of perfection, 丹·DAN 品牌创始人、主设计师郑小丹
attention to detail’. Rigour is present
in every aspect of the work, from the 丹·DAN 高级定制服装品牌，由品牌主设
