Two years after the designer’s first show and Vogue Scandinavia debut, we catch up with Louise Xin as she continues to change the world one dress at a time.
In less than two years, Louise Xin has garnered multiple accolades, held an opening speech at the UN conference in Albania and staged the first-ever fashion show in the European Parliament in 2023 focusing on forced labour and modern slavery. Her meteorite journey was, according to the designer, catapulted by Vogue Scandinavia’s article ’Louise Xin is changing the world one dress at a time’ detailing her debut.
“This autumn will mark two years since my debut fashion show,” says Xin, who notes that the article was an important step on the journey towards a more transparent and ethical fashion industry. “Honestly, I couldn’t believe it myself,” she continues. “It was the very first time a major fashion magazine spoke about Uyghur forced labour.”
