Mischelle Moy's mother, Jade Li, worked in a number of Chinatown's garment factories when she first immigrated to New York City in the 1980s. "I remember when we would start commut ing to Chinatown when I was just a toddler, with me being dropped off at a nursery school on Grand St & Bowery, while [my mom] went to work in a garment factory building nearby. My parents and grandparents would be in those factories making buttons, zippers, and multiples of other garment pieces.... My mom still works as a patternmaker to this day (with a reputation of her own!) so her immigrant roots are never forgotten, and I hope to help keep these memories alive.” —Mischelle Moy, June 2022 Jade is wearing the Osmanthus Top and Yarrow Pant. Her favorite motif is Orchid.-Ba Bao Zhou is a capsule collection celebrating the everyday abundance of our beloved Chinatown. Created in collaboration with Lorraine Lum and the Chinatown community during Joy Mao’s 2022 Artist Residency at The W.O.W. Project, the collection uses clothing-making as a vessel for community care. This inaugural edition of Ba Bao Zhou features a library of motifs representing the community's symbols of abundance—hand-carved and printed in green-blue tones on ivory linen.
