Twinkle

Label Overview

Taipei native Wenlan Chia launched Twinkle's first collection of playful, brightly colored hand-knit sweaters and accessories in the fall of 2000. A complete ready-to-wear line quickly followed, and Twinkle's runway debut, at the February 2002 Gen Art Fresh Faces Fashion Show, was a critical success. Multiple fashion-week appearances and a handful of accolades later (Tokyo's Onward Kashiyama New Design Prize and an induction into the prestigious CFDA), the sweetly offbeat label continues to showcase Chia’s whimsical, vibrant knits and of-the-moment pieces like tuxedo jackets, rompers, and tapered trousers. Twinkle by Wenlan has also come to include quirky costume jewelry, housewares, and books on the art of knitting.
