Shanghai Tang was launched in 1994 in Hong Kong by David Tang as a custom-tailored business, marshalling the talents of Shanghainese tailors who had fled Communist China in 1949. Shanghai Tang’s products are renowned for combining traditional Chinese design and motifs with tongue-in-cheek humour and a contemporary sensibility – resulting in a vibrant and witty fusion of “East meets West”. Shanghai Tang is now considered to be the first and foremost Chinese Luxury Brand.
Shanghai Tang Eyewear continues the Shanghai Tang philosophy of using traditional Chinese design and motifs, with the latest in design. Good fortune and auspicious thoughts are central to all aspects of Chinese life and culture and the Optical and Sunglass collection incorporates eye-catching Chinese motifs with vibrant colours integrated in each design.
