Leah Zhang, Founder


Founded in 2020 by visionary entrepreneur Leah Zhang, LUXE ORIENTA is the sister brand of SHANGHAI TANG, created to bring modern Chinese fashion to a global audience with sophistication, elegance, and cultural resonance. Inspired by the legacy of Shanghai’s iconic style and the timeless beauty of Eastern elegance, LUXE ORIENTA merges heritage with contemporary design, offering high-end apparel that reflects both 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 cultural influences. Our collections showcase the finest luxury craftsmanship, featuring garments like Qipao, Cheongsam, Shujin jackets, Tang jackets, and five-button jackets, designed for modern lifestyles without compromising authenticity.

Every piece is meticulously curated from China’s renowned fashion hubs — Hangzhou Sijiqing and Shenzhen Nanyou — areas celebrated for producing exquisite contemporary Chinese clothing for leading brands. With attention to detail, expert tailoring, and luxurious fabrics such as silk, Xiangyunsha, and Song brocade, each garment embodies the artistry and fashion craftsmanship that has defined Chinese dressing for generations.

Leah Zhang’s journey in luxury fashion, which includes experience with iconic brands like Chanel and YSL, laid the foundation for a brand that champions elegance, practicality, and modernity. Recognizing a global appetite for "New Chinese Style," she launched LUXE ORIENTA to fill a gap in the market: elegant, wearable, and contemporary Chinese attire designed for women who value both style and comfort.

Our collections blend modern silhouettes with traditional techniques — jacquard weaving, intricate embroidery, and refined tailoring — creating pieces that celebrate Shanghai-inspired style while appealing to a cosmopolitan audience. The palette ranges from classic understated tones to bold, fashion-forward colors, reflecting a versatile approach to high-end fashion that resonates globally.

From everyday office wear to statement pieces for special occasions, LUXE ORIENTA offers garments that bridge East and West, combining timeless design with practical luxury. Each item tells a story of culture, craftsmanship, and contemporary Chinese dressing, enabling modern women to wear tradition with confidence and elegance.

LUXE ORIENTA’s clientele includes young, style-conscious individuals around the world who seek authenticity, refinement, and a meaningful connection to Asian heritage. Leah continues to personally source each collection, ensuring that every piece maintains the brand’s promise of excellence and global appeal.

As a sister brand of SHANGHAI TANG, LUXE ORIENTA shares a commitment to luxury craftsmanship, cultural storytelling, and modern design, while catering to a new generation of women who embrace modern Chinese fashion as a part of their everyday lifestyle.
