For his partnership with Adidas Originals, Chen will bring an innovative vision and creative prowess to introduce exclusive collaboration styles, leveraging Adidas’ extensive archive and history in the process.
With a focus on fostering cultural exchange between the east and west, Adidas is partnering with Chen to introduce collections that push boundaries and defy the norms with his thought-provoking designs. This partnership will foster a future pipeline of creators with multi-faceted talent, knowledge and vision for the brand’s future. The collaboration is a testament to both partners’ global credibility in fashion, music, and retail to act as a catalyst for cultural connection worldwide, the company said in a press release.
“With Adidas, we’re creating to inspire. I think the ability to freely create something is one of the reasons why I do this. My whole aesthetic, especially in the past few years, has fully transformed. I haven’t had the chance to create through that lens yet, which is why this collaboration is exciting and nerve-wracking for me because we’re heading in that direction through this partnership. I’m coming in with new inspiration. I spent the summer in Europe immersing myself in the Adidas brand, which gave me a new point of view. The new EDC vibe is more chic than street. After the 20th year, I’m more excited than ever,” said Edison Chen.
