Founded in 2015 by visionary entrepreneur Leah Zhang, LUXE ORIENTA is the international evolution of Yalanji (雅兰集) — a renowned domestic fashion house that began in Nanjing, Jiangsu. What started as a contemporary fashion boutique has grown into a modern Chinese luxury brand dedicated to bringing the essence of New Chinese Style (新中式) to a global audience with sophistication, elegance, and cultural depth.
Inspired by the legacy of Shanghai’s iconic style and the timeless beauty of Eastern aesthetics, LUXE ORIENTA merges heritage with contemporary design, offering high-end apparel that balances tradition and modernity.
True to its name — “Luxury from the Orient” — LUXE ORIENTA draws from the rich tapestry of Asian heritage, chinoiserie, and centuries of artistry. Each collection showcases exceptional craftsmanship, featuring garments such as Qipao, Cheongsam, Shujin Jackets, Tang Jackets, and Five-Button Jackets, designed for today’s women who seek both authenticity and modern sophistication.
Every piece is meticulously crafted in China’s renowned fashion hubs, including Hangzhou Sijiqing and Shenzhen Nanyou, regions celebrated for their premium tailoring and exquisite textiles. Using luxurious materials such as silk, Xiangyunsha, and Song brocade, our collections embody the precision, grace, and artistry that have defined Chinese fashion for generations.
Leah Zhang’s journey in luxury fashion — including experience with Chanel and YSL — inspired her to create a brand that bridges East and West. Seeing a growing global appreciation for modern Chinese aesthetics, she launched LUXE ORIENTA to present elegant, wearable designs that reflect cultural pride and contemporary lifestyle.
From refined office wear to statement pieces for special occasions, LUXE ORIENTA celebrates the artistry of modern Chinese fashion. Each piece tells a story of culture, craftsmanship, and confidence — empowering women to express elegance in every setting.
Today, the brand operates 13 physical boutiques across Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, and has expanded globally through its online presence, reaching customers in the United States, Singapore, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.
