Chou is an expert in interdisciplinary co-creation who took a curatorial approach to these new uniforms by inviting a dream team of individuals who excel in international endeavors, all while staying rooted in Taiwan. This includes contemporary artist, Paul Chiang, national treasure and Indigenous artisan, Aing Banday, and twined flower craftswoman, Peggy Lin; as well as the major Taiwanese textile manufacturers, New Wide Group and Junmay Label & Textile, who demonstrate exceptional technical skill in sustainable fashions. Together, they created a uniform for the Olympics opening ceremony that embodies the spirit of Taiwanese culture, art, craftsmanship, and sustainability in hopes of a fashionable cultural exchange and exciting diplomatic mission on the world stage.
