INTIMACY The state of being intimate, such as a close association or connection or a relationship marked by depth of knowledge or broadness of information:

Lùchen’s spring/summer 2022 collection is the culmination of Lu Chen’s graduate thesis, unfinished in her final year at Parsons School of Design due to the Covid pandemic. Called an Introductory Collection, it served as the basis for Chen’s subsequent ready-to-wear line. Designs from both collections concentrate on the expression of time as it relates to the body and the craft of making. The "Adam With Apples" dress reveals the body under an evanescent layer of tailored and draped beige tulle.
