Shanghai-based design duo Liushu Lei and Yutong Jiang, who both graduated from Womenswear MA at London College of Fashion, describe their aesthetic as "bold and feminine”.
These two “Generation Z” designers cut their teeth at Simone Rocha and Gareth Pugh respectively before launching their own label SHUSHU/TONG on 2015. Inspired to create collections that are special yet accessible, Liushu and Yutong settled their goal of expressing young and fun without sacrificing femininity. They keep pushing the concept of boundaries between girl and woman, redefining femininity with modern cool attitude.
SHUSHU/TONG’s collection gained Lane Crawford since their first season, and the stock list currently has grown into worldwide including Dover Street Market, Opening Ceremony, 10 Corso Como, H.Lorenzo, amongst others. And still growing each season.

Latest Collection

Good gril/Bad Girl

Inspired by the 1980s black comedy Heathers, for A/W 2017 collection,
SHUSHU/TONG aims to reshape the iconic image of Heather Girls, a gang of
cool girls in a high school campus, with more contemporary and relevant
aesthetics and approach.
Considerate tailoring carefully decorates dress hems and sleeve cuffs
with rounded petal outlines, reinforcing brand’s longterm preference
towards a more girly and playful look. Attention to the shoulder lines
and sleeve shapes as well as a variety of detachable accessories
contributes to the result of more diverse silhouettes of the new
collection. For this season, SHUSHU/TONG woman naturally becomes much
more sophisticated and mature, which still enjoying the freedom and
spontaneousness from the youth that she would always love and deserve.
Collection’s majority of creations are made of wool, velvet and synthetic
fabrics with a furry touch, the different textures of which resonate well
with the diversity and complexity that the designers would like to
achieve. Light grey, azure, black and beige composes the collection, with
vibrant red, yellow and purple mixed within as subtle highlights.
A/W 2017 collection perfects the SHUSHU/TONG woman image. It offers a
fresh sense of belonging, just as the starting point film suggested in
the very first beginning. Modern Heather Girls are again gifted with a
much satisfying wardrobe choice from the brand.
