Cultural / Context information for the jury

Who says boys can’t wear skirts? Even though Taiwan seems to be a country that respects gender equality, quite a lot of bias still exists on school campuses. When it comes to the most basic issue of clothing, for example, girls are required to wear skirts, and boys are required to wear pants. In 2019, the students of Banqiao Senior High School decided to speak out, starting with the issue of clothes. During the school’s anniversary celebration, they called on their peers and teachers to wear skirts. It caused a storm of controversy across Taiwan. Voices respecting diversity should not be silenced. So Vogue Magazine joined forces with acclaimed fashion designer Angus Chiang, to design the UNI-FORM, a gender-free line of uniforms for girls and boys alike, transforming the students’ courage from a one-off event into a full-blown campus fashion.

Tell the jury about the art direction.

Every item in this line of school uniforms remains true to the spirit of freedom and openness to change. When it came to the school badges on the uniforms, we referenced the common habit among students of filling in the empty parts in English letters with colored pens, and we redesigned the school badges in brightly colored patterns, adding other elements, like spontaneously pieced-together color blocks and the grid lines for writing Chinese characters found in exercise books. Then we unveiled it to the world, with a launch event during Taipei Fashion Week, a presence in Vogue’s online shop, and an official Instagram account. And we designed a lookbook and official website in the style of Taiwanese homework books.
