Fashion in 2013 with a Masters in womenswear. Inspired by technology and
nature, Wu further developed the aesthetic of her MA graduate collection
'Schizophrena' which centers on exploring the work of multi-disciplinary artist
Anthony McCall.

Wu has gained much success in her short career including a
place in Fashion Scout’s internationally acclaimed graduate showcase which took
place during London Fashion Week in September 2013.We recently caught up Wu at London Fashion week to
have a look at her latest collections and were pleasantly surprised at what we saw.
Supple wool in shades of blue and orange off set
the teal green spacer fabric and white power mesh, highlighted by flashes of
gold accessories. Digitally printed colours of pale blue gradually disappear
into white, reminiscent of a mesmerising, ever changing blue sky. Fabrics are
joined by spiral sculptures which are echoed in the coiled earrings and
contrast binding, all of which bring a refined three dimensional element to the
collection.
Designed with a bold modern woman in mind, Wu uses
interlacing lines and fluid shapes to create a strong visual contrast. The
unique combination of unusual materials gives an otherworldly sense to the collection,
bringing together lightness and an air of easy elegance.
Keep an eye out for Min Wu's captivating designs to be featured in an exclusive, upcoming editorial by Third Floor! And to find out more about her latest collections,
