BIO

I am a PhD candidate at Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London, researching Fashion Histories & Theories. Drawing on postcolonial and decolonial theories, my thesis traces the role of the tracksuit in post-reform China, contributing to discussions on global modernity and the decolonisation of Fashion Studies. Prior to my PhD, I worked as a fashion journalist at T China: The New York Times Style Magazine.
