Great video I’ve loved Zhang’s work for a long time and I learned a lot about him and his clothes and message in this vid. Thank you Fashionlover4. This is the best video about him on TH-cam
Love ur channel!!! Can you please do one on The Row please.. don’t get caught up on the Olsen’s celebrity but show the beauty in making their well made garments please:)
I agree that his Masters collection is far superior to his other work with all its sci-fi goodness, but I disagree that’s it inappropriate to reference poverty when designing luxury. Upon seeing photos of his inspirations for his other work i think it’s translated very well through his eye for cut and color (and as a designer myself I felt most inspired while working at a gas/petrol station, often the best looks were worn by the homeless/less fortunate as they are sometimes forced to “accessorize” and unintentionally are pushed to blend second hand luxury into a functional look)
Recreating homeless looks for hundreds of dollars is pretty gross tho. Like what Demna is doing. I think those looks can be done for really cheap and it feels less gross when you thrift for like combat boots, distressed denim, worn out tees and jackets. Like the unsound rags look.
I think it depends really, it can be done tastefully and not so tastefully, I personally didn't find his BA collection too reminiscent of the book he referenced but I guess that's all up to opinion!
This analysis is way to existential about clothing. It's cool to look at but we all know influencers are gonna wear these around NY for a photo op, never having use for the utility and will just be trendy for a few seasons
impractically practical for impractically good looking and impractically unreliable when it comes to saving money type of clothing for exactly that type of people.
I have to disagree with the 700; it is clean and unique and keeps the brand signatures present but not dominating. So much more cohesive than then puma and whatnot; the colors are bright and work well together. Can be worn with most anything and was right on trend (dad shoes). Mix of textures, aesthetics and functionality is killer. Also, noting his desire to develop and innovate with/on fabrics, perhaps Stone Island could be a great next step for him? Or Arc’Teryx, if he’s REALLY desiring function over all, or seeking to refine his creation/style.
I'm thinking that in Nov 2022 if he still doesn't think the 700 is a special design and iconic, then I'm shook. The 700 not only has a timeless look, it was designed at the perfect time for the market.
When the clothing is that oversized then it isn’t really utility anymore. If he shrinks the clothes down a bit they can actually be useful and will probably look better imo.
Nice video but expecting someone's sketches to be hyper-realistic is just absurd. It's like expecting the first draft of a script for a youtube video to specify when to inhale the breath throughout the whole video. It's supposed to be light-hearted and fast.
I don’t expect all fashion drawings to be hyper realistic I know that it’s difficult to do and a lot of work as I said. But I do find a lot of value in them when it comes to visualising what the clothes might actually look like in contrast to more stylised takes. But again most people won’t do them because it is difficult so I just wanted to praise ding for doing it
Ngl he’s kinda right, I get what ye wanted to do with the shoe, but it looks like a Walmart version of a sneaker, if it wasn’t ye that made it, Niggas would be clowning it
@@fashionlover4 maybe I was tripping. I’d like to see what’s your opinion on the Kanye situation how much is your patron ? I don’t typically like giving other people money for no reason but I like your content. It seemed like you had a negative opinion on him expressing his freedom of speech. I also feel as a black male that white people can’t tell the world including blacks how to feel about another black man. Also foreigners can’t really have a credible opinion because as far as I know. No other country in the world allows freedom of speech like America but this was a clear sign that that’s no longer true.
In short Kanye is well aware of his actions and put his life and finances on the line to show the world the power of certain individuals. So when you say “his anti-semantic comments” it do bother me because I have respect for the truth and not for a false narrative that the media and the powers trynna push. I mean look at this Kyrie Irving stuff.
Yes Dingyun should grow his own label, it would be sick
Foam runners worn well is a rare sight.
agreed
Incredibly rare
Wym I do it daily
@Gavin Dupuy truuuue me and you both
I feel like we need to shift the culture so that people aren’t afraid to actually wear their shoes
Great video I’ve loved Zhang’s work for a long time and I learned a lot about him and his clothes and message in this vid. Thank you Fashionlover4. This is the best video about him on TH-cam
Thank you I felt inclined to make something on him as there really wasn't anything
you're my favorite fashion youtuber, the way you do your videos feels so genuine and calm. keep it up🗣‼️☝️
Dingyun makes clothes that perfectly match the newer Yeezy models
Love ur channel!!! Can you please do one on The Row please.. don’t get caught up on the Olsen’s celebrity but show the beauty in making their well made garments please:)
we needed a feature on zhang, bless bra
Dingyun's work is a mixture of 💀 and🔥 and I cant tell which is which
Those unreleased shoes are a banger
those paintings at 3:58 are by the artist @Gangbox inspired by Dingyun
I wish the other pieces in his Moncler collection dropped
I remember when I first discovered his shit n tried researching more about him and finding absolutely nothing
Hey! Just wanted to post a recommendation for a next video: could you do a tutorial on the basics of drawing your own designs? Would love to watch :)
love dingyun and his work but have u seen the video of future in da club with a dingyun hat hahahahahah
So looking forwards to that next fit war
3:59 sketches not made by dingyun painted by Goya

Also when people can't recognize what the reference is and buy into cause it's hype and trendy makes it even worse

my favourite designer besides jun takahashi, i love all of ding yun zhangs work especially with moncler
The way you managed to say Somerset without doing the accent is pure strength
Haha I thought most people wouldn’t get it so I restrained
I feel like he did the round jacket
the black puffer jacket that you said you didnt understand looks like a big hand holding the person like a doll
luv u fashionlover keep goin
i dont get it, bro just makes puffer jackets, whats so amazing?
Puffer boys unit fashion lover 4 uploaded a video

These clothes don't actually have any utility though.
@@TheGreatDefective they're probably very warm and have tons of pockets

The look in the middle at 17:31 the wrap around puffer reminds me of a hand.
bro it legit makes me sad that zhang is gonna be the last wave of the yeezy sweatshop designers. as legendary as the antwerp 6 imo
Who else is part of the “Yeezy sweatshop?
Yoon? Jerry? Virgil?
wtf that intro was entertaining, if you make another short film, make it longer mannn I thought that story was going somewhere
What is that longsleeve he’s wearing? Looks cool
The inspiration for this collection was Jabba the hutt
where'd you get the sounds from in the beginning? the scifi ones
At three minutes and 59 seconds that’s not his art that’s gang box by the way
The puffy stuff of ding is like life jackets
how do you find new designers to look into ?
YESSIR THIS THE RIGHT TOPICS!
ruined the video at calling kanye that
2:05 anxiety trigger
almost gave me a heart attack
Of people actually wear this the public transport is gonna have to have extra Space and Seats 😂
Kanye isn’t anti semetic you can’t be anti yourself
Great vid thanks
Lmao bro rly said "amogus but high fashion"
What’s that sweatshirt you’re wearing?

CROCS is hiving him the credit due
His designs resembles space
