OUR STORY
The Dreamland
of CAMEY LIU
CAMEY LIU is a contemporary womenswear label founded by Chinese-American designer Camey Liu, a graduate of Parsons School of Design in New York.
Rooted in Neoclassical Romanticism, the brand explores the relationship between classical beauty and contemporary expression. Sculptural silhouettes, intricate craftsmanship and a distinctive sense of femininity define its visual language, where architectural precision meets the softness and movement of fabric.
THE BEGINNING
The story of CAMEY LIU began with the designer's fascination with the female form, classical art and the emotional narratives found in literature.
During her studies at Parsons, Liu developed an approach to fashion that brought together sculptural construction and romantic sensibility. Her graduate collection, La Dame aux Camélias, drew inspiration from the literary heroine, exploring the complexities of femininity through corsetry, delicate embellishment and expressive silhouettes.
This early exploration established the foundation of the brand's design philosophy: a dialogue between structure and fluidity, strength and vulnerability, tradition and innovation.
A DISTINCTIVE DESIGN LANGUAGE
At the heart of CAMEY LIU is an ongoing study of form.
Inspired by classical sculpture, architecture and the natural world, the collections reinterpret historical references through a contemporary perspective. Structured corsetry, sculptural volumes and fluid draping are balanced with delicate lace, silk and intricate surface details.
The brand places particular emphasis on the relationship between a garment and the body, creating silhouettes that celebrate individuality while allowing freedom of movement.
Each collection unfolds as a visual narrative, bringing together elements of mythology, art and nature to create a world that extends beyond the garments themselves.
CRAFTSMANSHIP & INNOVATION
CAMEY LIU brings traditional craftsmanship into conversation with emerging technologies.
From intricate hand embellishment and couture-inspired construction to experimental 3D-printed elements, the brand explores new possibilities in material, texture and form.
The integration of digital fabrication and considered pattern-cutting techniques reflects an ongoing interest in more responsible approaches to design and production.
For CAMEY LIU, innovation is not a departure from craftsmanship, but an extension of it.
AN EVOLVING VISION
From its earliest explorations in couture-inspired design to its expanding ready-to-wear and Atelier collections, CAMEY LIU continues to develop a distinctive approach to contemporary femininity.
Since its inception, CAMEY LIU has continued to establish its presence within the international fashion landscape, gaining recognition for its distinctive approach to contemporary femininity and sculptural design.
The brand's creations have been featured in publications including Vogue Runway, ELLE, Harper's Bazaar, COSMOPOLITAN, and Hypebeast, and worn by celebrated artists and performers across international stages and editorial productions.
From its debut at Fashion Week Online to its presentation at LABELHOOD, CAMEY LIU continues to explore the dialogue between traditional craftsmanship, emerging technologies, and modern romanticism.
Rooted in artistic expression and guided by an evolving vision, the house continues to shape its own language of contemporary fashion.

A continuing dialogue between the past and the future, CAMEY LIU approaches fashion as an evolving form of art.
