For October, we’re summoning the synergy between algorithms and ancient systems. It’s tech meets tradition, spirituality, and the youth’s renewed fascination with fate, myth, and lore.

@songmont_official has put a pagoda in the middle of Paris, and its striking architectural form is only part of the story.
At the Song of Mont exhibition, a Shanxi pagoda-inspired installation sits above six of the brand’s signature collections, placing Chinese architecture and Songmont’s Eastern heritage as the centerpiece over the bags underneath. It’s a quiet statement about how Songmont sees its own work: the bags aren’t where the story begins, but what happens after it, carrying a journey that runs from architecture, craft, and landscape into the rhythms of everyday city life.
Each collection pulls from a different thread of China’s cultural landscape. The Gather Collection takes inspiration from the camel bags used along the ancient Silk Road, the Yore lineup draws its tiger-tooth motifs from Tibetan heritage, and the Drippy Roof Collection takes its cue from the sweeping eaves of Nanchan Temple in Shanxi.
True to Songmont’s design philosophy, heritage isn’t something to keep behind glass. It’s meant to be used, from the “Granny Team” of local artisans who became part of the brand’s foundation to the quiet, everyday use of the bag itself. Carry a Songmont through the city, and you carry that heritage with you, reshaped by your daily routines. It’s a reminder that heritage lives in the hands that make it and the people who carry it.

Sedan chairs that carry tourists up hiking trails are a long-running debate in China. Some feel for the bearers doing the heavy lifting, while others point out it’s how they make a living. Now there‘s an electric version, where neither the bearers nor the ”hiker“ needs to do any cardio. A three-hour hike? Now it takes 30 minutes.

A Zoo, the Powerpuff Girls, and a wuxia universe walk into Shanghai Fashion Week SS27...
This season, China’s homegrown designers treated the catwalk less like a fashion showcase and more like a stage for storytelling, from statements on individuality and nature to heritage and girlhood, all without losing any elegance. We’ve rounded up five of this year‘s most imaginative runways, proof that Shanghai’s fashion scene never fails to deliver concepts you didn’t see coming.
