SNOW XUE GAO is a New York luxury womenswear brand, founded by Asian American fashion designer Snow Xue Gao in 2017.
Snow launched her eponymous label after she received her Master's degree in Fashion Design and Society at Parsons the New School of Design. Snow’s asymmetric draping and tailored line break away from conventional definitions of feminine and masculine.
Snow's aesthetic heavily influenced by the Art movements and Costume culture between Eastern and Western. Snow relates with the collision of cultural and epochal references. “Duality” is the core of her aesthetic. Her professional and mixed culture background always prevails when it comes to consideration of the balance of garment structure and pattern.
