YITAO LI’S REBELLIOUSNESS BROUGHT HER BACK TO NYFW
Yitao Li’s newest collection for Tattao’s Fall/Winter 25 follows her continuous theme of nostalgia and non-conformity. Born in Taiyuan, China and moved to the United States at 14, Li’s rebellious stage stemmed from her choice of not following in her family expectations as well as their footsteps of working in finance or economics. In her first collection she was inspired by vintage cartoons, in this newest collection she drew from “antique furniture reimagined through the chaotic motion of a paper shredder”.

ALLINA LIU’S FW25 REIMAGINES IDENTITY IN THE PLIGHT OF HOME
Tension courses throughout Allina Liu’s Fall 2025 collection like the Hammond Organ’s slurred drone in the Lisbon family home. American Gothic at its best, Liu’s collection is an excavation of identity from the entanglement of insecurities, fears, and traumas that bloom in hostile environments. This fall line was conceived from a short story written by Allina herself. It begins with Yeha jolting awake to the sight of her sister, Meg lying across from her. Their pinkies still intertwined from their nightly ritual of wishing for a better tomorrow despite knowing better. Their parents made hell pale in comparison to home, so each other was all they had.

RAW, UNFILTERED & COKED OUT. TECHNOBOY’s SEXSUIT BY MENYELEK
TECHNOBOY’s February 2025 collection felt like the final stretch of an all-night bender—skin buzzing, bass still rattling your chest, cigarette smoke clinging to your coat as you stumble out of a warehouse, but the high hasn’t worn off just yet.
