ABOUT US

Established in 2018, DAWANG is a New York-based contemporary streetwear design brand that draws influences from East and West.

DAWANG is committed to celebrating a modern interpretation of traditional Chinese aesthetics.

Chinese-born Founder Daisy Wang launched DAWANG in 2018 after taking a class on subcultures at Parsons the New School of Design, realizing that nobody was making the type of elevated Asian streetwear that she wanted to consume—comfortable, ready to wear, and not a gimmick.

Later joined by her best friend Ab Li in 2022, with their similar background growing up, having absorbed aesthetics from both American and Chinese cultures, they meticulously joins traditional chinoiserie apparel and Chinese fabrics with Western tailoring techniques and trends.

Our inspiration is to invite people of all backgrounds to partake in the beauty of #ModernChinoiserie.
