Starting life in the vibrancy of Shanghai, China, Vincent LI trained as a dancer from a young age. He took the path into the technical world of IT from School but made the bold full circle of coming back to his true self by reentering the quixotic world of the arts to design fashion.

Vincent studied fashion in Melbourne and Hong Kong when he returned to Australia to start his label, VINCENT LI, in 2014, which based in Melbourne. What is it about Vincent that we all remember on that first meeting? It's the bright welcoming quiet friendliness and then the effervescent laughter that just about captures everyone into his world and leaves an indelible impression. But chat a bit further and you will find out more.

Vincent's passion and love for fashion is not just to create something new and amazing to wear but it's much deeper, he wants to capture the emotions and heart of the wearer. It's not the aesthetics but the whole; you put the clothes on and then begin the journey into intellectual artisanship which each of his garments aims to instil. The designer's personality is infused into every piece he creates. It starts with delving the depths of an intellectual topic like his first collection Existence and transforming a theme into what some may see as a piece of art to wear.

The designer has not forgotten his roots of the magnificent history of China that he combines with tenets of western fashion. VINCENT LI clothes combine the soft almost feminine aspects the western eye detects in orientalism with the more masculine form of western men's clothing. It's something different; it might bring a hint of trepidation to the wearer but at the same time is uplifting because it also brings the wearer into a new aesthetic. As Vincent says, "beauty exists because perfection does not".

在中国上海这个充满活力的城市，Vincent LI自幼接受舞蹈训练。从学校毕业后，他进入了IT技术领域，但他大胆地回到了真正的自我，重新进入艺术的奇特世界，设计时装。

Vincent曾在墨尔本和香港学习时装，2014年回到澳洲创立品牌VINCENT LI，总部设在墨尔本。初次见面，大家对Vincent的印象是什么？是明朗的热情安静的友好，然后是奔放的笑声，就这样把大家俘虏到他的世界里，留下不可磨灭的印象。但再聊下去，你会发现更多。Vincent对时尚的热情和热爱，不仅仅是为了创造一些新的、令人惊艳的穿着，而是更深层次的，他想抓住穿着者的情感和心灵。这不是美学，而是整体；你穿上衣服后，就开始了他的每件服装所要灌输的智慧工匠精神的旅程。

设计师的个性被注入到他创作的每一件作品中。首先是深入研究一个知识性的话题，比如他的第一个系列Existence，并将一个主题转化为一些人可能认为是一件艺术品的穿戴。

设计师没有忘记他的根源，他将中国的壮丽历史与西方时尚的原则相结合。VINCENT LI的服装结合了西方人眼中东方主义的柔美和西方男装的阳刚之气。这是一种不同的东西，它可能会给穿着者带来一丝惶恐，但同时又是振奋人心的，因为它也将穿着者带入了一种新的审美。正如文森特所说，"美之所以存在，是因为完美不存在"。
