Icicle

ICICLE is a Chinese contemporary luxury fashion brand founded in Shanghai in 1997 by husband and wife Ye Shouzeng and Shawna Tao. The brand was built around a mission to connect man and Nature, creating contemporary clothing to live and work in while paying tribute to the essential. Drawing on respect for Chinese culture, traditions, and philosophy, ICICLE proposed a timeless way of dressing, using advanced Chinese manufacturing know-how to transform noble fabrics into a refined, functional daily wardrobe. This founding ethos is expressed through the signature Made in Earth. The brand name is symbolised by the Chinese characters 之禾 (Zhī Hé), meaning “the sprouting seed,” and ICICLE continues to draw on the humility and wisdom of Chinese philosophy. ICICLE lets textiles speak, using the finest natural fabrics such as cashmere, linen, wool, silk, and cotton. Its clothes are positioned as quiet companions to modern life, bringing the wearer comfort, confidence, and natural élan. ICICLE has been a vertically integrated company for 30 years and has achieved international renown as a manufacturer and retailer of high-quality contemporary ready-to-wear and accessories. In 2013 it established a creative centre in Paris, featuring a couture-level workshop and an international design team, deepening the exchange between Eastern craftsmanship and Western design expertise. A leading name in Chinese luxury, the brand operates a network of more than 200 stores, including flagship locations in Beijing, Shanghai, and Paris.
