# Three-Dimensional Couture Collections The SHAO YEN AW 2014 Collection Plays with Texture By Kristina Marković | Published 2014-03-04 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shao-yen References: [vogue](http://www.vogue.co.uk/fashion/autumn-winter-2014/ready-to-wear/shao-yen) & [shao-yen](http://www.shao-yen.com/) The SHAO YEN Dimensions Autumn/Winter 2014 Collection is stunningly symmetrical. The London-based women's wear fashion house showcased its latest styles at London Fashion Week. SHAO YEN plays with color and texture. The styles and garments feature color patches, three-dimensional spaces and layering. The SHAO YEN Dimensions collection is a mix between ready-to-wear fashion and fun street wear. The unusually shaped skirts are a breath of fresh air for fashion daredevils. The SHAO YEN collection was inspired by Cubism and Chinese pictographic characters. However, the well-structured garments have an underlying nationalistic British touch. The blue, red and white pin stripe suit mimics the British flags colors. The pinstripe suit also has a white shawl with a British flag pendant attached. The SHAO YEN styles are dynamic and eccentric. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 22% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Color Patches:** Incorporating color patches into fashion designs opens up opportunities for bold and creative expression. - **Three-dimensional Spaces:** Exploring three-dimensional spaces in fashion design allows for innovative and visually striking creations. - **Layering:** Emphasizing layering in fashion designs creates depth and adds complexity to clothing. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Design:** The fashion design industry can disrupt the market by incorporating color patches, three-dimensional spaces, and layering into their collections. - **Streetwear:** The streetwear industry has an opportunity to embrace the bold and eccentric styles of SHAO YEN's Dimensions collection. - **Textile Manufacturing:** Textile manufacturers can explore new techniques and materials to support the creation of garments with color patches, three-dimensional spaces, and layered designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Chinese Luxury Brand Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zouxin.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Elegant New Year-Inspired Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alexander-wang-2024.md) - [Fabric-Centric Spring Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sage-nation-5.md) - [Futuristic Statement Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-future-is-not-set.md) - [Futuristic Fall-Centric Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origins-collection.md) - [Seasonal Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/siegelman-stable-1.md) - [Inclusive Wardrobe Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-second-dawn.md) - [New Year-Inspired Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-lunar-new-year-campaign.md)
